- Green stems
- Budget
- Everyday pruning
The value bypass pruner to beat: an all-steel body, a precision-ground low-friction blade and a self-cleaning sap groove for well under $20. It will not replace a Felco for all-day pro work or thick canes, but for clean cuts on roses and green stems it is the pruner most gardeners should start with, and the lifetime warranty makes it low-risk to try.
Pros
- All-steel one-piece body costs a fraction of a Felco yet survives real garden abuse
- Precision-ground, low-friction-coated blade slices green stems cleanly and resists sap sticking
- Self-cleaning sap groove and lifetime warranty make it a genuine buy-it-once budget pruner
Cons
- 5/8 in capacity is smaller than the Felco F-2's 1 in, so it bogs down on thicker canes
- Blade is not user-replaceable the way premium pruners are, so a deep chip means a new tool
- One-size handle fits average hands but is roomy for small hands and cramped for very large ones
