Spear & Jackson Razorsharp Bypass Pruners

These bypass pruners are designed to cut stems up to 20 mm in diameter. They are best suited for pruning shrubs, roses, and general garden maintenance.

Bypass pruners work like scissors, with two blades passing each other to create a clean, precise cut. This is ideal for live, green wood because it minimizes damage to the plant stem, whereas anvil pruners can crush delicate stems.

The adjustable tension system allows you to tighten or loosen the pivot point between the blades. This ensures the blades stay perfectly aligned for a clean cut, even after significant use or sharpening.

The 2-step catch allows you to lock the pruners at different opening widths. This is particularly useful if you are making many small, repetitive cuts, as it reduces the distance you need to open the handles, saving hand strain.

These pruners feature an integrated sap groove along the blade. This channel helps divert sap and debris away from the cutting edge, preventing the blades from sticking during heavy pruning sessions.

Yes, they are designed with ergonomics in mind. The lightweight aluminum handles are paired with rubber shock absorbers that cushion the impact of each cut, significantly reducing fatigue on your hands and wrists.
