What are the Fiskars PowerGear X Pruners like to use?

These secateurs are made of tough resin and are comfortable and light. They have a hardened, carbon steel blade with a PTFE coating to prevent them getting jammed and a 20mm cutting width. They cut all wood really smoothly and powerfully and are simple to use. The safety catch is on the top and very easily engaged with just the thumb. The lower handle rotates to make long pruning jobs easier but this didn’t suit some testers. They're black but have an orange handle to help them stand out if lost. Replacement parts, including blades and springs are available and they come in two sizes, medium and large.

Are the Fiskars PowerGear X Pruners good value for money?

With a 25-year warranty and a reasonable price these comfortable, high-performing secateurs are good value for money.

Who are the Fiskars PowerGear X Pruners most useful for?

Although the rotating handle may not suit all gardeners, they're ideal for repetitive pruning and cutting and their light weight and rotating handle make them good for less able and older gardeners.
