GardenessJapanese Pruning Shears, Professional Bypass Heavy Duty Garden Pruner Secateurs – Lightweight Easy Grip Hand Pruners Branch Clippers for Gardening, Trimming, Harvesting. Made in Taiwan

These pruners are the best I have found. You will need to make your own holster but not a deal breaker

I really like that these pruners DO NOT have the spring in the center of the handles that most often fall off during use, which cases the two handles to flop. In addition, the clasp that closes the handles engages for safety when done.

I've bought a lot of clippers in my time. Felco (too heavy) to cheap. These are reasonably priced and work fantastic! I was a little apprehensive but I think these are my favorite clippers I've ever had now. :)

I was using the main stream sheers like Fiskar and another brand. This pair of shears is miles better than the ones you find a Home Depot or generic garden centers. Nice feel in the grip. Stays sharp a long time. dont slip out of your hand. and Bonus - you can easily find them in the dirt with the red and white handles... seems like you can easily see one color or the other - clever.

These pruning shears are wonderful. They feel comfortable, to hold and have such clipping strength.

I really like Okasune brand shears, but these were a lot cheaper, so I purchased them. I found them to be heavier than the Okasune. The day they arrived Okasune price dropped, so these were returned. Maybe it's my imagination, but when I held the shears, they seemed weighted towards the blade, whereas the Okasune have a better balance in the hand

Bought these at $16 vs the Okatsune for $30+. Having both brands you really get a feel for how different they are. I gave these away... Okatsune pruners are what your looking for.

Great pruner. Use 90% of the time.
