FELCOF322 Pruning Snips – 9.84" Swiss-Made Garden Clippers with Curved Blade & Rounded Tip | Pruning Shears for Gardening | Garden Snips and Pruners with Carbon Steel Blade, Sap Groove

After using the same snips that had been gifted to me about 20 years ago, this year I finally decided to get a new pair. Felco came highly recommended by friends who are also accomplished gardeners, so I took their advice and bought them. The first thing I noticed is how well they fit my hands, and how little effort it took to to use them. They are lightweight and very sharp, which makes them excellent for cutting roses. Due to their streamlined design they’re useful for clipping the stems inside of plants with compact growing habits, and great for deadheading spent blooms. This is a quality tool that I expect will last a long time with proper care, and well worth the price.

I got this to dead head flowers in our yard. Works great on roses and everything I have had to dead head. Very sharp and easy to operate. I have some larger hand clippers but the spring was pretty heavy duty. It was good for pruning larger stuff. I can deadhead hundreds of flowers and my hand doesn't get fatigued. I really like this. It fits right in my pocket and I carry it all the time when working in the yard.

Carbon blades with a chromium coating seem like a step up from what everybody else is doing.The carbon blades can be harder and hold an edge better than stainless, while the chromium gives it some protection. OTOH, if you don't take care of your tools, it's more likely to corrode.Does cost more, but I'd rather have a long lasting pruning snips that does the job well.

These are the BEST snips I have ever had. They cut SO smoothly and are perfect for cutting back my zinnias and other flowers. They make cutting so much easier and are so light!!! I also like the fact I do not have to put my hand into the ends like scissors. I wish I would have bought these many years ago. I would HIGHLY recommend. They would be great as a gift for any garden enthusiast.

No company beats Felco for pruning shears, so I'd hoped the nippers would be as satisfying to work with. Not disappointed at all! Lightweight, nice blade and a pleasure to use. Definitely would recommend! Five stars! For the price they can't be beat!

Use this around the garden for fine plant work; sharp, functional, durable and easy to use. Well worth the price.

Excellent pruners! Work great for dead heading my lilies and roses. Saw made in Taiwan on box and was concerned so contacted Felco customer service and they confirmed it is a legit Felco. I do wish the tool was held together with a bolt and nut like their other products as I am concerned about not being able to disassemble the blades to sharpen them.

Perfect size for doing more delicate work without giving up durability.
