Okatsune Shears No. 306

These are specialized harvesting and thinning shears. They excel at delicate tasks like deadheading flowers, harvesting fruits or vegetables, and precision pruning in tight spaces where larger bypass pruners would be too bulky.

The blunt tip prevents accidental punctures or damage to surrounding foliage and fruit during close-quarters work. It allows you to reach into dense growth or harvest delicate crops without nicking nearby stems or produce.

This is high-grade Japanese steel with a Rockwell hardness of 60 HRC, which is exceptionally hard. This allows the blade to hold a razor-sharp edge for a long time, meaning you won't need to sharpen them nearly as often as standard garden shears.

Yes, the vinyl-coated handles provide a secure, non-slip grip that is gentle on the hands during repetitive tasks. Because they are lightweight and compact, they reduce fatigue significantly compared to heavy-duty pruning shears.

The No. 306 model features a simple, reliable coil spring design that keeps the blades open and ready for the next cut. Unlike some heavy-duty pruners, these are designed for quick, continuous action rather than storage-heavy locking.
