FELCO 14 Pruning Shears

There is no arguing with the quality. If you treat them right they will be with you for many years. Sharp, precise, and great for general purpose pruning everywhere. If you are looking for a gift you can’t go wrong with the F2.

I was tired of buying the box store brands every year. These are quality pruners that are made to last more than a few months. I recommend them highly.

Quality construction, up for the job, comfortable -- does not cause me to overuse my hand strength. I am so happy that I read the reviews from seasoned gardeners/landscapers and opted for the Felco 2 instead of a cheaper brand on black Friday. It is so important to purchase products that deliver value. For me, value goes beyond the price tag. I look forward to enjoying many years of use with my Felco pruning shears.

I cannot believe how good these pruning shears are! I just went out and re-pruned my roses. My old shears really butchered rather than cut, even arter sharpening. I finally thought it was time to get a decent pair at whatever the cost. WORTH EVERY PENNY!

The Mercedes of pruners for most branches up to 1" (if you're strong)! They work well - sharp, smooth, and easy on my 74yo arthritic hand. Somehow lost my 22yo Felco pruners and hated to spend $82 on new ones. They didn't sell Lt handed ones back then, so I am almost happy to spend the money. I have 3 pair of cheaper ones that I hate. They ship with a blade replacement tool, not that this set won't out live me.

I had a Felco pruner and loved it. But once my partner became interested in gardening, too, it disappeared. I'm not sure all women appreciate a good tool as some men do. Anyway, I missed my pruners, and bought a new Felco F2. Pricey: many times more expensive than all others. But I got it today, and spent some time examining it and smiling at its excellent, thoughtful construction. Unfortunately, those qualities seem to be declining in favor of meeting a specific price-point. You can take it completely apart. Felco even provides a small wrench tool to accomplish that (!). You can replace or sharpen the main blade yourself, which I enjoy doing. It's solid, even a little weighty for some folks. And Felco backs these pruners with a reasonable lifetime guarantee. Just amazing. I appreciate good tools that exhibit craftsmanship and quality, and this is a very, very good one.

This Felco F-8 is an excellent bypass pruner. It is a little heavy and a holster ( Felco F-912 Leather Scabbard Holster with Belt Clip ) is a good accessory. However, the F-8 seems best for larger hands. I have short hands/fingers, and so I also tried a Felco F-6 ( Felco F-6 Classic Pruner For Smaller Hands ), which is the same pruner made for smaller hands. Frankly, the F-6 was not much of an improvement for me, so I stuck with the F-8. The F-6 has a significantly smaller cutting capacity compared to the F-8, although the difference might not matter for ordinary flower gardening. F-6 specs: Length 7 1/4 inches, Weight 7.5 ounces. Recommended cutting capacity is 0.8 inches. F-8 specs: Length 8 1/4 inches, Weight 8.7 ounces. Recommended cutting capacity is 1.0 inches. Sharpening this type pruner is easy and requires no dissassembly(see Felco's directions/instructions). Use the Corona Clipper AC 8300 Sharpening Tool . And if you don't keep them sharp (and lightly oiled) they will soon dull and rust and be no better than a much less expensive pruner that is dull and rusted. If you don't think you'll maintain the tool maybe get one of these instead: 1. Corona Clipper BP 3180 1-Inch Capacity Bypass Pruner with Vinyl Coated Steel Handles . I've used this compact pruner in the past and they work fine if maintained. If not maintained, they'll dull and rust too, but they're still less than half the price of the Felco. The quality is nothing like the Felco's, but they're cheap, small and light. 2. Corona Clipper 1-Inch Capacity Bypass Pruner With Vinyl Coated Aluminum Handles BP 6250 . I haven't seen these, but they look like a Felco knock-off. They might be the best value for the money regardless of brand. In my opinion, while I haven't used them, for the average gardener the Corona Clipper 1-Inch Capacity Bypass Pruner With Vinyl Coated Aluminum Handles BP 6250 is probably the most sensible choice out of all those listed herein (including the Felco's). Corona is a good brand for most homeowners, and their products are widely available at local stores selling gardening supplies. Honestly the Felco is overkill for most home gardeners. Really for pros.

Best pair of pruners I’ve ever owned. Cost a little more than others but worth the money. They should last me a very long time.

Como todos los elementos de su marca, gran calidad. Lo recomiendo

Have been using this pair of secs for 7 years now, and they are fantastic. I sharpen them a lot, but that is just through use, and I abuse them a lot by using them on branches they shouldn't be cutting. If you have a strong grip, these will cut through anything you can fit in its jaws. I don't advise that, but they will do it. Much better than paying a paltry amount for worthless secateurs, push the boat out, and these will last forever.
