Magnificent mini pruning shears for debudding, hand-forged and tempered from S55C steel with moderate carbon content, very robust and more shock-resistant, from the new brand KEN KATABAMI.
For very small hands or for jobs where you need to use your fingers (pinching).
Extremely compact, sturdy and very ergonomic ! And incredibly sharp !
Rockwell hardness rating (HRC) : HRC 55.
The compact size of the tool allows you to hold it in your hand while using your fingers to pinch the vegetation and change its direction in the palm of your hand in an instant.
Perfect for transparency pruning on pine trees, where old needles are removed with the fingers and the branches are thinned with secateurs, or on evergreen plants for samba sukashi sentei pruning, where the leaves are removed from the branches with the fingers, leaving only the top three leaves, while at the same time thinning the branches with secateurs.
Perfect for pruning pine candles, it is also suitable for pruning woody plants (up to 15/20 mm without any problem), dead flowers on rose bushes, picking fruit, etc.
I particularly like their small size and shape. Place the notch at the top of the handle between your index and middle fingers, which allows you to hold them in the palm of your hand while using your fingers.
