Know before you buy
These pruners are specifically engineered for gardeners with smaller hands. While they will function for anyone, the handle length and grip design are optimized to provide better control and comfort for smaller hand sizes.
The P753 is a bypass pruner, which is best suited for cutting green, living stems and branches. It is not recommended for dry, dead wood, as that can damage the precision-ground blade.
The coating serves two purposes: it protects the steel blade from rust and reduces the buildup of sap and debris. This allows the blades to glide through stems more smoothly and prevents the tool from becoming sticky during extended use.
The innovative thumb grip is designed to provide extra leverage and stability while you prune. It helps you maintain a secure hold on the tool, which reduces hand strain and improves precision when making repetitive cuts.
To maintain performance, wipe the blade clean of sap and moisture after every use. You can periodically sharpen the edge with a dedicated sharpening tool to ensure it continues to make clean, healthy cuts that promote plant recovery.
