Ergonomic Garden Secateurs (Set of 2) - Anvil & Bypass Secateurs, Ideal Secateurs for Arthritic Hands, Premium Pruning Shears with Auto-Rotating Handle and Finger-Protection, Davaon Pro

These are the real deal. I got them for cutting back some of the undergrowth that covers the paths when I walk my dog and they are brilliant. The smaller ones easily cut through brambles and other small vines that force their way out over the path and the bigger ones cut the offending brambles at the base no matter how thick. They also cut back branches that impinge over the path. Comfortable, easy to use and good at what they do

I have not been very lucky with my secateurs lately. In spring I lost a pair in our woodland area and after intense searching failed to find them. Husband bought me a cheap a pair from Lidl. I told him they would not be any good but in fact they performed pretty well and lasted me until a couple of weeks ago when the spring action failed.These looked just the job - and buying a pair means that if I lose one pair at least I will have another to hand!So far I am very pleased with my purchase. The lock easily and feel very comfortable in the hand. The blades on both are very sharp and make short work of shrubs, hedging etc. I realise that the anvil type are recommended for dead and dried stems and the bypass for live stems but actually when I am engrossed in my garden I tend not to differentiate between them. The specifications are good and they should last for a long time - if I don't lose them!

The Bypass pair are superb for their size, very sharp and easy to cut green stems but not woody. The Anvil pair are pretty useless on green stems but are reasonable when cutting woody stems, but they are not as easy to cut as the Bypass. They say they can cut up to 20mm, well whoever is using these Anvil secateurs to cut 20mm must have a grip like Samson! I would say about 12mm is pushing it. But, they work and are well made. So together they make a pretty decent working pair of secateurs, and are well worth the money.

I ordered the secateurs so that I would be able to tidy up my garden whilst being confined to my home for the next 12 weeks. I fully expected to wait longer than usual for my item to be delivered due to the current Coronavirus problem., however I received the secateurs less than 24 hours after placing the order. Within that time I also received an email from the seller giving advice on using and caring for the product. What an amazing service by both the seller and by Amazon delivery service. I would like to offer my thanks to both parties! The secateurs are brilliant. They are light in weight but work really well on stubborn stems that need pruning. I was very impressed with how comfortable they are to use and found that the spring action made them easy to use too.i would definitely recommend this product and seller to anyone else considering making a similar purchase.

My old secateurs, similar to these had finally broken after about 15 years of hard work. I was struggling to find some ergonomic ones like them to replace them with. I saw these and thought for the money I'd give them a go. I couldn't be happier. All of my large shrubs have been pruned back, they're nice and sharp and cut through even quite thick branches fairly easily, no blisters at the end either! Great value.

I have been getting thumb and hand pain (over gardening) and these to seem to help. They are easy to hold and because of the swivel effect of the handle they do seem to be easier to use. The anvil secateurs cut well and quite big plant pieces. The bypass ones don't seem to work as well on thin plants.

Easy to use and very good quality. Used regularly and they work well. Very sharp and deals with branches easily.

These are the best I have ever used, and I am so pleased with them. I cut a few twigs at first and then cut a 12mm diameter branch on a small tree and it was a really neat cut - my others even when new did not do such a good job, the woody branches were always slightly mashed up rather than cut, and I always needed more strength to use them. I hardly needed any strength at all to use these. I recommend this set - if you want a really good pair of secateurs - they are worth paying extra for...
