Corona Original Bypass Pruner

These bypass pruners are designed to cut stems and branches up to 3/4 inch in diameter. Attempting to cut thicker material may damage the blade or the pivot mechanism.

Yes, the blades are designed to be resharpenable, and replacement parts are available. This allows you to maintain the tool's performance over many seasons rather than replacing the entire unit.

The integrated sap groove is a channel on the blade that prevents sticky plant residue from building up. This keeps the blades from sticking together during operation, ensuring a smoother, more consistent cut.

While the pruners feature an ergonomic, non-slip grip to reduce fatigue, they are a standard size. If you have very small hands, you may find the 10.75-inch overall length slightly cumbersome compared to compact-specific models.

Bypass pruners, like this model, work like scissors with two blades passing each other to make a clean, precise cut on live, green growth. Anvil pruners use a single blade that comes down onto a flat surface, which is better suited for dead or woody stems.
