Spear & Jackson 6758GS Razorsharp Geared Anvil Secateurs

Easy to cut branches etc,so pleased with the sharpness.Not too heavy either.Great price for good quality.

I'm very pleased with these secateurs, they are very good. I have arthritis in my right hand and they have easily cut through hard stems. Excelkent price too.

Easy to use but doesn’t have a rachet mechanism if that’s what you need if your grip not the strongest. Good value for money though and supplier dealt with the order very quickly.

I recently purchased this garden clipper, and it's been a game-changer for me. As someone with joint pain in my hands, I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it is to use. It effortlessly cuts through trees and shrubs, allowing me to tackle my gardening tasks without discomfort. The ergonomic design and smooth cutting action make it a joy to use, even for extended periods. Overall, I highly recommend this garden clipper to anyone looking for a reliable tool that makes pruning a breeze, especially if you have hand pain like me.

This is my review of the Spear & Jackson 6758GS Razorsharp Geared Anvil Secateurs.I went for anvil secateurs as I believe only having one blade(cutting down onto a non-cutting, "anvil," surface) means that when cutting you are only trying to force one blade through the branch so these anvil secateurs are more general purpose than the bypass secateurs.(With two cutting blades that bypass each other in use like the blades on scissors) I also think that these anvil secateurs are better with tough, more woody shrubs.There is some gearing with these secateurs that helps and I was surprised how easily I was able to cut through established growth 1cm diameter without having to use loppers.These secateurs come in at 244g on my scales and feel light enough for prolonged use. The scissor handle is large enough to get your gloved hand through and the spring return is just strong enough to keep the secateurs in your hand whilst you are using them.These secateurs are not perfect however as the main problem with the anvil secateurs is that they do not leave as clean a cut as with the bypass secateurs and they do not work so well on really thin clippings. For some jobs you might be better off with a bypass secateur.These were not expensive for what you get so I am happy to recommend these as they are a good set of anvil secateurs but bear in-mind that for some jobs you may be better with bypass secateurs instead.

These do exactly as described, really impressed with these,

The media could not be loaded. Good size with a nice grip. Locks well and very efficient cutting mechanism. Down side, it blunt pretty quickly.

Alot easier to chop plants down with these, ratchet system is good. Easy to use and better for the elderly, in fact for all ages.
