FELCO 2 Pruning Shears – 25 mm Cutting Diameter, for Large Hands, 215 mm Length, with Sap Groove, Ergonomic Handles, Red

Good, sharp and comfortable to use.

I am a landscape gardener and I always buy this brand it is particularly helpful that the company cater for the larger hand. They last for years as they are well made so cope with regular use. I would highly recommend this product.

Superb pruners. Ergonomically brilliant. Feel like an extension to your own hand when picked up. A delight to use.I quite like them !!!

I bought a pair of these for my girlfriend about seven years ago and they're still as good as they ever were. I bought Felco's diamond sharpening stone too and along with common sense maintenance I can honestly see them lasting a lifetime.My mum needed a new pair of secateurs - she has a drawer full of cheap ones, I did my best to fix them up but they're just not good, they're semi-disposable really. So I bought another pair of Felcos and she's extremely pleased. I'll keep on top of the maintenance for her but putting them side by side with a knock off pair she has was laughable.I don't really garden myself (well I do, but I don't love it!) but I like my tools and appreciate a well made precision tool when I see it. There's tools you buy for an odd job that you probably won't use again, so a cheaper one might do. Then there's tools that will be a mainstay of your longterm hobby or work and it's always worth buying the best you can, both economically and for the best results.Secateurs definitely fall into that category as they'll potentially see decades of year-round usage. The fact that the Felcos can be easily maintained, stripped down, have their parts replaced and the business end is made from extremely high quality steel (they come with a precise cutting edge that will pass the "paper test") means that for less than £50 they're a sensible investment. I use a variety of cutting tools in my hobbies and the Felcos are as good as any of them.So, don't have a drawer full of rusty blunted tools! It's a shame that people replace their secateurs when they stop cutting or functioning as they should, whether that's through lack of maintenance or just buying the cheapest ones they can. It's wasteful and a false economy. Grab a pair of Felcos, maintain them, and you'll have years of gardening joy (whatever that is!).

Excellent product

Here's a short review for the **Felco FEL6 Model 6 Compact Secateurs**:Fantastic, lightweight secateurs perfect for precision pruning! The ergonomically designed handles provide comfort, while the high-quality blades ensure clean cuts every time.Ideal for gardeners with smaller hands.

Brilliant bought to care for my roses, nice and sharp and clean cuts and genuine too always weary with some amazon purchases

I've been using Felco secateurs for over thirty years and find them incomparable to cheaper copies, I don't know why but they just out perform secateurs that look identical to Felcos. They continue to be the choice of professionals so that tells you something. I use a Felco 2 as it is a full size professional pair of secateurs. I bought these Felco 6 as a present for me mum as they are slightly smaller and I think she'll find them just right for her hand. I bought a pair of Felco 6 secateurs many years ago and found them to have all the wonderful robustness, sharpness etc that I'd come to expect from Felco. They are perfect for dead-heading, cut flowers, and smaller pruning jobs. For general gardening and the ability to prune stems of a diameter of an inch or more I'd always choose Felco 2... but I think many women would enjoy the smaller Felco 6...the jaws open a little less but they are precise and light in the hand. The info on the box says the secateurs can cut up to 0.8 inches and is suitable for a medium hand. Perfect lady secateurs I'd say...for larger pruning use a pair of loppers.
