Tobisho Pruning Shears SR-1 200mm Bonsai

Product Information

These are just a few of the places where you can easily get the shears, you can also ask at local stores near you if they carry the product. It is a high-quality secateurs design which combines a great balance with a clean, razor-sharp cut. When you think of gardening in the U.K., you’ll likely think of Monty Don, the Gardeners World host, face of the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, and author (he’s published 21 books over 30 years). We wanted to find out what secateurs he used in his own garden in Herefordshire — his two-acre space is broken up into four separate spaces, including a vegetable garden and a cottage garden, featuring over 50 species of shrub roses. It has quite a long warranty, cuts well and is smooth. On the cons of the product, some users reported the rotating handle was a bit uncomfortable for them. It also puts less strain on the rests even after working for quite some time. The design is lighter which makes the user less fatigued at the end of the working day.

Manufactured in the mountains of Yamagata, a prefecture on Japan’s Honshu Island, these secateurs come steeped in tradition. When planning to buy a pruning shear, look at the ease of its maintenance. Is it a design you can easily take apart for cleaning and sharpening purposes? I’ve always been Felco-free. Never rated them. Once had an argument with a Felco fanatic. His were 19 years old and he wouldn’t be without them. We dissected his Felco’s. The only 19-year-old part remaining was the bolt. The nut had come off at some point and he’d never found it so the nut was new too! The blade holds its edge even after continuous use and doesn’t require as much touching up as other secateur brands. Drop forged, deep in the mountains of Yamagata, from amazing high carbon steel, these secateurs combine a beautifully refined balance with a smooth, razor-sharp cut. The face of the cutting blade is slightly hollow ground to reduce friction in the cutting action, giving a cleaner, easier cut.SR-1 is the pruning shears. This is made from high grade cutting steel (Yasuki YSC-3). TOBISHO succeeded to the improvement of a durability rise, the weight saving, the tough rise, and the grip fitting. The amount of content carbon of steel is 1%. The whole body was forged by high grade cutting steel.

Made from Yasugi steel with its high carbon content, they offer a great balance of strength and ease of use. A single piece of high quality steel is used to forge each side of the secateurs. This ensures the integral strength from the blade to the end of the handle. Fiskar pruners are good and known all around the world for top-notch quality and versatile designs. These babies are bashed out of one piece of top quality Yasugi steel, from blade to handle, and combine the shape of the traditional A-Type with more modern production techniques, resulting in a light and balanced but strong pair of secateurs that are comfortable to use all day long. In all after 5 months of use, these have become my tool of use for pruning woody plants, they are sharp, pretty maintenance free, easy and comfortable to use. That statement is one I thought I never would make about any other make of secateurs, it just shows how high I rate these secateurs. Would I recommend them to everyone, possibly not, these are not designed to do other things I have seen secateurs used for like cutting wire, stones, opening things up, hammering in nails etc. If you use yours in that way, then the high carbon steel blades won’t last that well for you and it will be a waste of money for you. HOWEVER of you use your secateurs for what they are designed to do i.e. pruning plants only then yes these are well worth you spending your hard earnt money one and will make pruning even more enjoyable than it is already for you. They are now my first choice for pruning and I can’t see them losing that mantle for a long time to come

Monty Dons’ interest in gardening was cultivated growing up as he engaged in gardening activities with his family from a very young age.
