Fiskars Bypass Pruning Shears
by Fiskars
Fiskars' classic bypass pruning shears feature a fully hardened precision-ground steel blade with a low-friction, rust-resistant coating and a self-cleaning sap groove that prevents the blade from sticking on resinous stems. The 5/8-inch cut capacity handles most pruning tasks from deadheading to cutting small woody stems, and the non-slip ergonomic grip reduces hand fatigue during extended sessions. Backed by Fiskars' lifetime warranty and available at a price that makes them easy to replace if lost.

"Fiskars bypass pruners are the recommendation for beginners and experienced growers alike — the price-to-performance ratio is unmatched in the category. Bypass design (where blades pass each other like scissors) produces clean cuts versus anvil pruners that crush stems, which is critical for disease prevention. Clean and oil the blade after each use and these will outlast most premium brands. The lifetime warranty is real — Fiskars honors it."
