Felco Pruning Shears (F 5) - High Performance Swiss Made One-Hand Garden Pruners

This has a single sharpened blade that bypasses the lower un sharpened “anvil”. It’s not the usual anvil pruner. Nonetheless it works well and is cheaper than other felco pruners. Not as nice as those but I wanted some to cut things that might damage the blades of my nice pruners and these work well for that!It’s got a very strong spring action and if you have small hands, it won’t be manageable. I wear a men’s large size glove and it almost opens too wide. Perfect for me but the strong spring and opening size would cause problems for smaller hands.

Excellent for pruning my rose bushes. Very durable, sharp and nice to hold.

These worked great! I’m 67 and they are easy to grip and cut well!

These pruners do seem very sharp. They are definitely made for larger hands. They do not appear to "have a revolving handle for extra comfort." Not what I was expecting but they do seem well made.

These are very nice pruners. The lock does not get in the way, which I really like, and they're seriously sharp and I think they are going to be nice to have.

I've gardened most of my life and have learned the value of good gardening tools. There's little worse than having cheaply made trowels that bend when using them to dig or clippers that won't cut anything but the slenderest stems. Most of the sources I consulted rated Felco as the best so I ordered them. I'm very impressed with their solid construction and size. I've been using them a few weeks now and they handle everything with ease. Swiss manufacturing standards have an excellent reputation and these live up to that. There's no need to hesitate getting them.

This is the second pair if owned. Very easy on the clipping hand. Easy to sharpen, easy to clean. Holds the edge well, keeps sharp. Good blade and grip. Worth the cost.

I bought a set of pruners (2 different types), from a well-known, but cheaper, brand. Those really weren't too good at pruning - even new out of the package. They'd "bend" the branch instead of cutting, take a lot of force to cut, etc. The Felcos are wonderful. Very sharp and strong. Best of all the parts are replaceable, so if something breaks, we don't have to toss the entire tool. These will be our pruners for a long time.
