Kikkerland Tension Spring Garden Shears

The built-in tension spring automatically pushes the blades open after every cut. This simple mechanism significantly reduces hand strain, making it much easier to tackle repetitive pruning tasks without tiring out your grip.

These shears are designed for standard garden maintenance, such as trimming shrubs, flowers, and light stems. They are not intended for thick, woody branches that require heavy-duty loppers or saws.

The blades are crafted from high-carbon steel with a hard chrome finish, which provides excellent rust resistance. However, for the longest lifespan, we recommend wiping them clean and storing them in a dry place after use.

The polypropylene handles are lightweight and ergonomic, which keeps the overall tool easy to maneuver. They provide a sturdy grip that balances well with the steel blades, ensuring the shears don't feel heavy or cumbersome in your hand.

Like any cutting tool, the blades will eventually dull with frequent use. You can maintain their edge with a standard sharpening stone or file, which will keep them cutting cleanly and prevent damage to your plants.
