Bypass Pruning Shears with SK-5 Steel Jaws, 21 cm

The border fills with stems that need one pass rather than a saw. These bypass shears cut with a blade that passes a hook, come in Japan SK-5 steel with a TFR coated handle and measure 21 cm. They suit anyone keeping beds, pots and hedges in shape.

A bypass pair with steel jaws and a grip

✅ Bypass jaws for living stems The blade passes a hook instead of meeting a flat anvil, the pattern used on green growth.

✅ Steel jaws, coated handle Japan SK-5 steel is the stated material, with a TFR coating on the handle.

✅ Yellow handles, easy to find Set them down in the border and the colour still shows against soil and leaves.

✅ Sized for one hand 21 cm overall with a 10 cm handle, so it sits in the palm rather than the fist.

✅ Ready when you are, no charging There is no battery to charge and no cable to find before a border job.

Bypass pruners cut by slicing a blade past a hook, so the stem is held as the blade closes. That makes them the pair to reach for on green wood and flower stems; for dry, dead branches a saw does the job better.

The whole tool is 21 cm with a 10 cm handle and weighs 286 g. It is a compact pair that sits in the hand, not the long-handled lever you would use on a thick limb.

One pair arrives and nothing else: no holster, no spare spring and no sharpening stone. No certification is claimed for the tool, and it takes no battery.

Wipe the blade and dry it after a wet session. A steel tool left damp in a shed is the one that suffers, and a dry, clean jaw is ready for the next cut.
