Know before you buy
Unlike traditional secateurs designed for heavy-duty branch cutting, the Kurumi Pro Snips feature fine, pointed blades specifically engineered for intricate, delicate tasks. They offer much higher precision for deadheading, harvesting, or shaping small plants.
These snips are designed for light pruning and fine work, with a maximum cutting capacity of 5mm. Attempting to cut thicker stems may damage the carbon steel blades.
Yes, the Kurumi Pro Snips feature an ambidextrous design, making them equally comfortable and effective for both left- and right-handed gardeners.
Carbon steel is highly durable but prone to rust if left wet. After each use, wipe the blades clean and dry them thoroughly, and consider applying a light coat of camellia oil or mineral oil to prevent oxidation.
The walnut wood provides a natural, textured grip that is generally more tactile and less slippery than smooth plastic or metal handles. However, as with any wooden tool, it is best to wipe the handles dry after use to maintain the integrity of the wood.
