Your cart is empty.Japanese sword steel delivers maximum sharpness for clean cuts; wooden handles make for comfortable handling. These light hedge shears deliver smooth, precise cuts regardless of the foliage you are pruning. Eliminates crushing and chewed cuts. Blades are made from hot hammer-forged Izumo Yasuki Steel, which is used in the making of Japanese swords. This steel gives the shears maximum sharpness and cutting power. Ultrahigh on the Rockwell scale, the tempered steels measures a Rockwell hardness of 60. 6-inch blade; 20-inch overall length; weight of 2 lbs. Bumpers may vary - in the past they used metal bumpers that met together behind the pivot bolt, like traditional bumpers. However current models use a metal rivet on the top side of one of the blades that simply keeps the blades from fully crossing over each other.

Razor sharp blades...cuts mid sized branches and brush like butter! These shears look rather cheap from handles perspective but any shear worth a dam has to be rated against its cutting ability...this one is awesome...typical Japanese workmanship with metal...superb!

This trimmer is sharp and light weight. I prefer it over my electrical trimmer for small jobs as it is easier to control and less tiring to use.

Expensive but they are the best shears I have used. In 2 yrs use they are still extremely sharp. I work for a lawn care company part time and they purchased a pair for the company after using mine and that set is holding up just as well. They cut great. My neighbor told me about these who retired in horticulture. He still has his first pair that have been used more than I would use these in my lifetime and his still cut great.

I lived in Japan for 18 years and had bought a similar one when I lived there. I regretted that I did not bring it back with me and was disappointed that I could not find shears like it here in the states. Even though it is pricey it is worth every penny for the results you can achieve in your yard.
