Ratings & Reviews for Fiskars Large Softgrip Steel Bypass Hand Pruner with Standard handle
Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise these pruners for sharp bypass blades that cut smoothly through branches up to 3/4 inch without crushing stems, ergonomic softgrip handles that reduce hand fatigue, and a secure one-handed locking mechanism. Many highlight how the tool makes pruning accessible for those with limited hand strength or arthritis. The blades retain sharpness over repeated use on tough vines and woody stems. A small number report locking mechanism failures or handles too large for smaller hands, but most consider the pruners reliable and effective for routine gardening.

Not great quality.
The first day I used these I had to cut some roots away when planting a bush. The sand and dirt from the ground immediately clogged the center hardware. As a result the lock and unlock feature barely works.

Warrany cost as much as you paid to get
Would Not RecommendLatch fell off and Warranty is a joke. The way they keep from having to warranty their product is that they make you pay nearly as much as the item cost to ship them back for warranty. I asked them and they said that after they force you to ship the defective ones back, they throw them away anyway before shipping you a replacement. I own many Fiskars products but will never buy another one of theirs.
Good to hear they’re handling the tough stuff. Cutting roots is no small task, and it’s great that these pruners are taking it on without complaint. ...
