They are shears with the typical anvil cut. After the cut has been completed, the mobile blade “goes against” an aluminium anvil performing a guillotine cutting. Moreover, the sharp blade is mounted in an eccentric position in order to ensure the so-called “pull cut” : during the pruning, it tends to drag the branch towards the rotation fulcrum reducing the effort and holding it back. The blade unit is made of steel with a high carbon content and it is hot forged and tempered with heat treatment ( 58 HRC ). The blade offers an anti-adherent coating that increases penetration ( on request ).An inside grease container lubricates the shears constantly. The blade and the counter-blade play can be adjusted to perfection assuring a clean and precise cut. The alloy aluminium handles are lined with anti-slipping rubber. This model is designed for small hands.
