The Bahco ergonomic pruner is a versatile, professional grade tool ideal for all pruning work in the home or professional garden. This pruner comes with larger handles designed especially for larger hands. The durable, medium-sized blades are coated with Xylan to prevent rust and reduce friction and are able to cut stems and branches up to 3 4-inch thick. The special angled head design reduces wrist and arm strain; the handles are made from fiberglass-reinforced plastic, with an upper soft grip handle cover and lower rotating handle for increased comfort and optimum performance.
