Bahco 7-Inch Professional Pruner with Steel Handles P121-18

These are wonderful cutters the same as your old Sandvik pruners. Excellent quality, I've had a pair around 20 years. They are very comfortable to use and the true spring lasts forever unlike the wide flat coil type that rust and snap. These come apart easily for sharpening. Superior quality to any other brand and I've tried many. Bacho is the best in my opinion and many years of gardening. The 7 is good for a small hands, I like the 8 the best, my husband likes the 9" but they are all the same great quality just depends on your hand size and application, I have one of each and use them all!

I have all medium pruners and thought I would try the small ones hoping it would be easier on my small hands. It's not, actually harder than the medium pruners but does the job! Will always recommend Bahco, it's the best pruners around!

this little pruner works good for small spaces like roses- think a slightly larger one might be more versatile- only problem hard to get closure to slip into place unless your hands are stronger than mine
