Corona Classic Cut Bypass Pruners

These pruners are designed to cleanly cut through branches up to 3/4 inch in diameter. Attempting to cut thicker branches may damage the blade or strain the pivot mechanism.

Yes. The design is fully ambidextrous, making them comfortable and effective for both left- and right-handed users.

The integrated sap groove channels away sticky residue and debris as you cut. This prevents the blades from gumming up, which keeps the cutting action smooth and reduces the frequency of deep cleaning.

Bypass pruners, like these, work like scissors with two blades passing each other to create a clean, precise cut. They are best for live, green wood, whereas anvil pruners use a single blade against a flat surface and are better suited for dead, dry wood.

Because the blades are made from heat-treated, forged steel alloy, they hold an edge quite well. However, depending on how often you use them, a quick touch-up with a sharpening stone once or twice a season will keep them performing at their best.
