FELCO 5 Pruning Shears

FELCO's entry-level model: the same clean bypass cut and the same Swiss origin, without the extras. It is built entirely of steel, and its handles, a little longer than usual, give good leverage. Its slim cutting head slips into dense branches.

• Length: 225 mm · weight: 313 g
• 57 mm blade, cutting and anvil blades in high-quality steel

Use

• Pruning shrubs, roses and perennials
• Branches up to 25 mm in diameter
• The longer handles take less effort on tough stems

Care

• Wipe the blades after each use, then oil them lightly
• Sharpen the cutting blade as soon as it catches: a dull pruner crushes the stem instead of cutting it
• Disinfect the blades between plants when pruning diseased wood
• Every wear part can be replaced: blade, anvil blade, spring and buffers are sold separately
