From the Manufacturer
The traditional cutting action will feel familiar the first time you give these pruners a squeeze. But the power they apply will blow you away, thanks to Fiskars patented four-point pivot design that lets you feel up to twice as strong as you actually are. The anvil cutting action (much like an axe against a chopping block) and non-stick blade coating help you power through dry, hard branches up to 5/8 inches in diameter. Cushiony comfort grips let you keep a secure hold on this pruner as they soften sensation of every cut. Suitable for right- or left-handed use, these pruners are perfect for everything from pruning new growth to deadheading daisies. And the lifetime warranty is Fiskars promise of performance that lasts long after the bloom is off the rose.

Customer Reviews

Excellent pruners at a bargain price
Fiskars Consumer #91105935 Traditional Anvil Pruner

Of the half dozen models or so hand-pruners we own, these are the best. They are so good, I just ordered two more so everyone in the family can help me prune!

Cons:

- It's not too difficult to sharpen the blade if it's only a little dull. However, if it has nicks, that's a different story. This is because the entire sharpened blade must touch the brass anvil at the same time, to cut effectively. If you take off too much steel from one spot or the blade is seriously nicked, you may as well buy another pair. This is true of any anvil pruner.

Pros:

- Cuts any branch up to 5/8" in diameter, or if the wood is really soft, 3/4".

- The "power-lever" feature is really a type of compound action, with the added benefit that the jaws open wide from the back. That allows larger branches to fit close to the pivot point, increasing cutting leverage. The result of these design features: this pruner requires less effort than other models. Fiskars claims it takes half the effort of other pruners, and that's probably close.

- If a branch fits, the only limiting factors are your strength and blade sharpness.

- Anvil cutters don't twist on the wood while cutting, or pinch a tiny piece of wood and get stuck closed, like scissors pruners sometimes do.

- The blade is hardened steel, so unless you catch a rock or other hard thing and nick them, they stay sharp for a very long time (years in our case).

- Light weight compared to expensive scissors pruners, so they are comfortable to use for hours. Light enough to carry in your pocket to the work site.

- Simple blade lock that works and doesn't lock by itself.

- They are inexpensive, so if you lose them in the weeds, it's not as big a deal as losing an expensive tool.


Highly recommended.

Well made tool
It is well made and the hinged opening gives a wider mouth to cut stems. The handle is hard with a soft black covering. I expect it to hold up to daily use. It is average size, a little smaller than my other ones.

Not sharp for long
I've hardly used it and already it's lost its sharpness, bending rather than cutting through stems. I am so disappointed. On the other hand, my friends pruned the apple and lemon trees, so maybe it did get a little bit of a workout, but still, I expected more longevity. I need a new and different pruner.
