ARS FB-8 pruning shears
ARS FB-8 pruning shears – 22 mm cutting capacity
Light and well balanced
The universal grip suits every palm size. The 54 mm razor-sharp Japanese steel blade leaves a clean cut face, which helps the plant recover. The built-in shock absorber softens the impact as the shears close, sparing your wrist over a long session.
One-handed lock
The catch can be operated with one hand, without putting the tool down. It sounds like a detail, but across several hundred cuts a day it makes a real difference, especially on a ladder or in dense growth.
