Many thanks Really good item fast delivery what more can you ask for. GT
I first used this tool to trim a large garden shrub, no effort needed, I wish I had had one of these years ago, rather than cheap models.
The locking mechanism is a little OTT and if you are like me with arthritis in your hands, you will really struggle to lock these, I do not think the price warrants plastic locks, overall a good idea, but doesn’t work well.
Bought this for my 90+ Mum who has weak hands. The only thing wrong is that it is impossible for her to unlock, therefore she has to leave it open all the time which gives her the risk of cutting herself when she picks it up. However she assures me apart from this it is the best pair of seceteurs she has used
I am happy with these secateurs, but gloves should be worn when using them, as the handle rubs on your thumb and causes blisters. the button to open and close the secateurs is stiff, i needed to use a screwdriver to budge it, they are very strong and well worth the money.
I comment as a woman who found it impossible to open the secateurs due to the strength required and the same reason applies to ‘use’, ‘hold’ and ‘comfort’. However a man would undoubtedly find them very useful and of good quality.
On receipt of these secateurs I have reduced the height of a very large and sharp thorny shrub with relative ease the secateurs worked very well, my only complaint is that the secateurs slip when I have thornproof gloves on.
The good news is that I am able to use these secateurs. It is such a delight to be able to get back in the garden again.
These secateurs are great for cutting fairly thick, hard wood – even if you have weak hands. They are also great at the other end of the scale and will actually cut green, delicate stems rather than tearing them.
