Barnel B188Z4-6 Telescopic Pruner

The telescopic handle extends from 4 feet to 6 feet, providing an overall tool length of 49 to 79 inches. This allows you to reach branches or fruit significantly higher than your standing height without needing a ladder.

The cut-and-hold mechanism grips the stem of the fruit or branch immediately after the blade makes the cut. This prevents your harvest from dropping to the ground, which is especially helpful for delicate fruit or when working in dense foliage.

Yes, the tool includes a detachable tri-edged saw blade that attaches to the head. This allows you to tackle slightly thicker limbs that exceed the pruner's 0.625-inch cutting capacity.

It weighs approximately 30.7 ounces (870 grams). While the extruded aluminum construction keeps it relatively lightweight, you will notice the weight more when the pole is fully extended, though the ergonomic design helps maintain control.

Absolutely. The handle rotates 180 degrees, which lets you adjust the cutting angle without having to twist your wrists or reposition your entire body. It is particularly useful when navigating around complex branch structures or reaching into tight spaces.

The blade is made from hard-chromed sword steel, which is designed for long-term durability and resistance to rust. While it is built to hold an edge well, it can be maintained with standard sharpening tools if it if eventually dulls.
