Ratings & Reviews for Fiskars UltraSharp Forged Steel Bypass Hand Pruner with Standard handle

So far so good

Bought them for my mom to replace her older ones. Seem like they are of good quality and will do well.

Smooth cut

This rugged pruner gets the job done! Solid, forged steel provides a easy smooth cut. The soft cushioned grip is a nice feature. It cleaned up my pigmy palm fast. I did try it on a tree branch about 3/4 inch and it cut it fast and easy. I like the locking system. In my opinion it needs to open a little wider. The blade looks like it will last many sharpens.

Really sharp and well-designed, sturdy pruner

I 2 previous models of this hand pruner; this model is by far the sharpest with an ergo enhanced design. It easily cut 1/2 inch branches as seen in the photos. Compression was light and it made a clean sharp cut. The unlock tab is located between the handles (orange bock). I'm used to Fiskars unlocks being located up near the hinge area; so it took a bit of "re-training" for me to get good at unlocking with one hand while using the cutter; but change is good, right? Overall, this cutte...

High Quality

If you need to do some small pruning on shrubs or even small branches and limbs, these are great. When it says ultra sharp, it means it. These things can handle a pretty tough job. my only complaint would be the location of the lock. It's in a weird position that you really can't just slide your thumb up to close.

Easy trim

I really love these trimmers. I have tried other brands and have always come back to Fiskars. They don’t disappoint in ease of use, trimming capabilities or cleaning. It’s definitely worth every penny.

Nice Pruner

This pruner is easy to use with a comfortable grip. The super sharp blade did a great job on some smaller branches on my Redbud tree. It is impressive how smooth it cuts. It has a nice lock on it to protect the blades during storage. I also found it helpful to prune the spent blooms on my rose bush which made it easy to avoid sharp thorns. These hand pruners are wonderful with the quality people have come to expect from Fiskars products.

small but powerful

This is a small but powerful set of hand pruners. My wife was able to cut a 1 inch branch by using both her hands . The quality is way superior to the less expensive pruners. I think this pruner will last a long time. You still have to be careful not to pinch your hand on a large branch.

Super sharp pruners

I generally love Fiskars as a brand as they offer lifetime warranty on their products and really honor it! I have had pruners from Fiskars and the newer model is definitely a lot sharper, has more ergonomic shape and I like the safety lock. I always worry that my daughter would find something sharp and cut herself, but with these pruners she would not be able to undo the safety lock. I used them to prune my hydrangea and rose bush, cuts are very clean. These pruners will definitely handle larger...

Strong Cutting Action; Nice Grip

This Fiskars hand pruner was great to use for trimming smaller trees (up to 1 inch) in hard to reach places where a larger tool (like a loper) would not fit as well or where you may be on a ladder and have only one hand to work with. It was easy to hold it in one hand and make a clean cut thanks to the sharp blades and the comfortable grip. This even has a very convenient locking mechanism for the blades which you can reach with your thumb. This is a very well-designed tool, and I expect this...

Heavy Duty!

These are some AWESOME hand pruners! They are heavy and sturdy. I feel like I could cut through anything with them! (as long as I could squeeze hard enough) LOL!

Sharp and well-built

This hand pruner is nice for smaller jobs. Its very comfortable, has plenty of leverage, and is super sharp. Clean cuts are important for proper healing. The spring is strong and opens the handles quickly for the next cut. It has a lifetime warranty but I'm sure it will outlast me.

spring issue

when using pruner, spring popped out. after re inserting and continued use spring began to pop out again. this time spring caught and was bent. unable to fix. returned pruner

These are the worst constructed pruners I have ever used. They loosen and cannot be tightened back to original stiffness. The spring is so Sonora I spent more time picking it up off the ground than using the pruners. Do not purchase if you have any sort of yard to take care of.

This product is absolutely fantastic it’s small, but it get the job done with little to no pressure being applied.

works good

Bought these just to have an extra pair. They work well.

Poor Design

Not nearly as comfortable and easy to use as I expected. I'm planning to return them.

Strong and Sharp

I bought these to use when maintaining my grapevines , riverbank and muscadine. The riverbanks vines grow prolifically and get woody quick. These make short work of pruning them. Additionally they are comfortable when I am pruning for an extended period time.
