The Wolf Garten RR2500 Bypass Secateurs are ideal for delicate and precise pruning in your garden. Bypass blades work on a scissor-like cutting action with one blade ‘bypassing’ the other. They are best used on younger growth as they provide a very clean cut, essential for maintaining a healthy plant or shrub. These light weight pruners have ergonomically designed handles which have an integrated thumb rest for safety and are ideal for a medium sized hand. They have an internal spring mechanism and an easy to use locking mechanism. The PTFE blades have a non-stick coating and can cut through stems up to 22mm thick. These are suitable for both left and right handed use.
