Review: Quality Hedge Shears That Make Trimming Easier - I work as a freelance gardener and sometimes that means trimming a hedge. I don't use gas powered tools. Prior to purchasing these Okatsune shears, I owned a very basic and somewhat heavy set of shears and I didn't particularly enjoy hedge trimming. All of that completely changed after I bought these shears. Firstly, as a female gardener, these are really enjoyable to use because they are incredibly light weight and nimble so there is absolutely no arm or back fatigue using these as opposed to using heavier shears. Secondly, they are super sharp and trimming with them results in a beautifully precision cut hedge. Thirdly they allow me to get my work done faster. These shears are a dream to work with, I love using them for work and now I can say I really enjoy trimming hedges.
Review: EXCELLENT! Consider Stihl which is rebadged Okatsune 231 Model - longer blades and less $ - My "orange handled" hedge shears were not working right - something out of alignment so I was looking and found these rave reviews for OKATSUNE shears. The price was a little high but I am drawn to QUALITY so decided to take the plunge. Bought these 217 shears. They arrived new and sharp and clean. I did not use them as right after I ordered I saw some other reviews theorizing that Stihl Heavy Duty shears are made by Okatsune. Yet the picture didn't quite match these. I dug further and found that Okatsune also makes a 231 model which is same medium length handles but the blades are around 1" longer. THAT picture matched exactly to the Stihl product. So I went to local A hardware store and got those kind for a lower price. I like that I get more blade length for less money. Either way you can't go wrong I think. THESE ARE SHARP and I made quick work of my yews and boxwoods. These cut the boxwoods like buttah! On the yews they also cut like buttah and even on the thicker clumps of stems that are up to 1/2" in diameter, a little arm power and they slice through those too. I cleaned them off after to get the sap off then oiled them. I probably should have oiled them FIRST before using to make clean up even easier. I think they will last a long time. I am a little wary that the oak handles will be the thing that breaks at some point but hopefully not for awhile. They are attached by a couple rivets on each side.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Super sharp
*by Y***E on July 24, 2024*

I used this to chop off the tops of the ton of thyme and mint I have to encourage growth and keep the bees under control. The cuts are super sharp. Be careful. I actually cut my finger while using rubbing alcohol to clean the blades. Wow that hurt. These are super light. I'm a 63 yo female and carried them around my hard for 3 hours. Tomorrow I'll use these to tackle all of my boxwood. I bought the whetstone to keep them sharp . Great shearers. The ones I have from ace just basically smushed the stems instead of cutting them. I'm wondering if all Okatsune products are as excellent as these shears.
