Customer Reviews for Fiskars 1 in. Titanium Coated Steel Blade Bypass Hand Pruner

I’m probably not the typical buyer, I have a couple hundred apple trees that I prune annually. I needed a new set of pruners and saw these at HD and figured I’d give them a shot at half the cost of a Felco set. They feel nice and work great and I would definitely recommend them except that they are basically disposable. There are no replacement blades for sale, even online. My blade is beyond sharpening and this tool is going in the garbage. Good fit for someone with little cutting to do.

My small hand span easily manipulated the tool. 1” cutting span is good for mature brush and small bush care. Only 3-weeks usage, blade is holding its edge nicely. We’ll see how the season ends. So far very happy with Fiskars tool performance.

These shears worked great for awhile, then handle broke on a small 1/2" cut. Cast metal is not very strong. Maybe had a hairline crack if we dropped. Either way, don't expect to break. $29.98 Home Depot. IS THE HANDLE REPLACEABLE?

Right out of the package I tried to cut a 1/2 inch stem on an apple tree. Blade bent so bad can't even close pruners.

It came apart. The clamp that opens/close the jaws just came loose. Could've fixed it but I figured the money spent on this tool ,I shouldn't have to fix it. To make matters worst, the limbs I was cutting were not even the max. allowed! Was not pleased.

I love this little pruner. It is lightweight, very easy to use and is pretty sharp. It does the job quick.

I bought these titanium pruners in hope that I would buy a premium product that would last. I used my pruners for 3 hours off and on cutting sprouts and briars. I never cut anything thicker than half inch. The pruners are rated for up to an inch. At first, I noticed the pruners cut like butter, but after a while they were not so smooth. After I finished up. I was going to oil the blade, but I notice that the blade was nicked and was binding against the shear. I am not sure if it is due to poor machining where the blade meets the shear, but I am sure that the tempering must be off for the blade to be damaged so easily. It gets me because there is so much information on the package about titanium, hardened steel, precision ground even for heavy use, etc. I don't feel like the product lived up to the promise I was given, and considering the price it is disconcerting. I will be returning these pruners.

size good for large hands, easy to use, cuts cleanly and does not require excessive force to use

as expected. replacing an identical item that is 10 years old.

Like the fact that it’s sturdy and has more weight to it

Feels good in my hand!

Easy to handle my wife loves it

I purchased this because I wanted a better tool for light to medium bush trimming. This trimmer is just what I needed!

Works well 1” branch at outer limits of the tool’s capacity.

All metal product that works really well.

I really like them for small branches, I have real difficulty with thicker ones and I don't think it would work for 1 inch branches.

Fiskars pruner: Nice and sharp, cut through roots and branches nicely. Used it in the rain, we’ll see how well it holds up over time.

Sharp, cuts great. Love how the handle rotates as you squeeze the clippers. Easy to use. After using an hour or so, got a blister. Guess I need to wear gloves!

Looks like a quality shear. Fits nicely in hand and very sharp.
