Hand Pruners?

[guymayor]

When I got the Lowe anvil pruners I was super sceptical.
...After looking all of the cuts over he told me that for all he could see they were done with the same pruners.

The action and handle fit on the Lowe are a bit more comfortable than my trusted #2s.

The Lowe are easy to adjust too.

The Rule of Dumb that scissors are better than anvils is just wrong.

After using those Lowe's for a while i found that the blade was sprung and didn't align. I hadn't done any large diameter pruning or used them
In tough wood.

They are in the toolbox of my van as backups or emergency use

Felco # 2's are back in the lead by a long ways

Beware the AM Leonard look-alikes. They fall apart.

I've had and used Felco #2, I loved them until I bought ARS VS-9 pruners. I like them a lot more. Feels better in my hand, I like the spring more, and I seem to get better, cleaner cuts.
