About This Product

The Fiskars Pro Pruner is your number one choice for daily, quality performance. Featuring PowerArc technology, the pruner boasts intelligently curved blades for 20% easier cuts through stems and light branches. A cast-aluminum handle ensures ultimate durability, while thicker, high carbon steel blades stay sharp longer for reliable, long-lasting performance. Covered with a non-stick coating to help reduce cut force, these blades are also easy to sharpen and replace. This pruner is well-balanced and designed for maximum control, with multiple grip positions on the handle to reduce hand fatigue. Secure, shock-reducing bumpers lessen impact, and a smaller, secondary lock setting helps prevent you from overextending the handle, allowing you to make quicker, easier cuts on small growth. The Softgrip handle offers you a high-visibility handle and comfortable control. Make the Fiskars Pro Pruner your go-to tool for all trimming and pruning needs. With strong, reliable construction and superior ergonomics, this pruner delivers the power and performance you need.

    Are these "FiskarsPro 1 in. Cut Capacity Steel High Carbon Blade with SoftGrip Handle Hand Pruning Shears" food grade steel?
    ByDec 14, 2025
    1 Answer | 
    Answer This Question

    These pruning shears are designed for gardening tasks and aren’t intended for food preparation. For cutting or prepping food, we recommend using tools made specifically for that purpose, such as our Fiskars Herb Pruning Shears for harvesting edibles, or our Fiskars All-Purpose Kitchen Shears, which are designed to safely chop vegetables and cut meat.

      Answer This Question

      As previously stated, these shears are designed for gardening and pruning, not food prep. While the blades are steel, they’re not manufactured, tested, or maintained to food-safe standards. For cutting herbs, fruits, or vegetables you plan to eat, we recommend using tools specifically intended for kitchen or food use.

            Answer This Question

            Yes you can. You can also buy new blades pretty cheap to just replace your old dull blade.

              Thank you for contacting Fiskars. Yes, the Pro 1 in. Cut Steel High Carbon Blade with Cast Aluminum Handled Pruner can be disassembled and sharpened. It has a bolt through the pivot that can be removed. Once it's removed, the blade will come out of the handle and can then be sharpened. Reassembling is just putting the blade back in and re-tightening the pivot bolt and nut.

                What difference between High Carbon steel and Titanium? Why is it so expensive compare to Titaniumi googled, everyone said Titanium is highest in strength.
                ByOct 6, 2022
                1 Answer | 
                Answer This Question

                High carbon steel is known for its hardness and ability to hold a sharp edge, making it suitable for tools like pruning shears. Titanium, while stronger and lighter than steel, is significantly more expensive to produce. This higher production cost is reflected in the price of titanium tools. Therefore, although titanium boasts superior strength, high carbon steel offers a balance of performance and affordability for many applications.

                  We're happy to hear these pruners delivered exactly what you were looking for. Reliable performance doesn't have to come with a lot of bells and whistles, and it sounds like this tool is getting the job done nicely. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and may your garden tasks stay smooth and snip-tastic! Fiskars

                  Best pruners I've used! This Fiskars PRO pruner (Model 394951 – Made in China) is very comfortable to use, designed for added leverage, and solidly built. It ought to be for the price, put quality can pay for itself over time. I particularly like the three-position locking mechanism. It holds securely in the CLOSE position, provides full separation of the blades in the OPEN position, but has an intermediate position that puts minimal strain on my hand during trimming of smaller branches. It's a nice touch. It can slip back out of position during cuts though, but it's not a real problem. The blades are sharp and cut easily through ½ – 3/4” branches, depending on hand strength. They often stick after a few cuts though, but it's easy to push the blades open with my little finger without changing my grip. Fiskars includes a Full Lifetime Warranty, so I should never have to worry about buying another par of pruners!

                  This is Fiskars’ new pruner (model 394951, though you’d be hard pressed to find that number on the package—I got the number from the Home Depot website. If you’re trying to find this tool in the store, look for the barcode number: 0 46561 80419 0). It has a rated capacity of 1”. These pruners have a real nice feel in the hand—comfortable grips, and a nice fit and finish. An interesting feature is the dual lock position. One position locks the jaws completely closed (see Photo 1). The second position locks the jaws slightly open. I guess this is for when you’re cutting a lot of small stems—you don’t have to close the jaws from a completely open position so this reduces hand fatigue (see Photo 2). The blades are nice and sharp and easily cut the (semi-frozen—it’s winter) branches I tried them on. The only thing I wish they had is a hanger hole—I like hanging my pruning shears on a pegboard. I guess I’ll have to get creative (I didn’t take any stars off for this). They come with a full lifetime warranty.

                  This Fiskars hand pruner is comfortable to use, for the handles are curved with a plastic texture for gripping. The handles are orange, so you can see the tool if you drop it or leave it on the ground. There’s a spring that opens the cutter up after cutting a branch. It cuts branches up to one inch in diameter. You can with your thumb lock it closed or just halfway open. There’s a Teflon surface on the blades so that they cut easily through a branch without sticking. This is a sturdy, functional easy-to-use pruner.

                  A pruner for life. With options to sharpen and replace components these excellent quality pruners really could last a lifetime. The construction is very good and there is no slackness or movement in the tool apart from the smooth opening and closing movement that should be there. The capacity of the non-stick coated blade is a full one inch and the design of the tool enables greater leverage in the cut. The lock lever is easily accessible and can be flicked on and off with little effort. The handles are comfortable to hold and provide ample cushioning for prolonged use. They come with a full lifetime warranty too. These are, without doubt, the best pruners I have ever used.
