RS22 Anvil Pruner

I needed a pruner for the various trees, rose bushes, etc. around my yard. The first task these had was to cut branches ranging from twigs to over an inch off of a 40' tree limb that I cut down with the WOLF-Garten Tree Saw ( WOLF-Garten 7231009 Tree Saw ). These sheers seemed kind of small initially and I wasn't really holding out hope bit they are solid and well made. Well, I snipped off a twig and it was like I hadn't done a thing, the twig just fell it was a perfect smooth cut. I moved up to a half inch branch, easy. Like cutting through thin cardboard with scissors. Then a 1" thick branch, two cuts and it was off with nice clean crisp cuts. No more difficult than cutting through the end of a cauliflower. These make the job so easy that you actually want to find things to cut off. Easy to care for, easy to use, built in safety. A great tool.

I have buyers remorse iced this purchase, got dull quick!

Thanks to K. Richard's 2007 review of this Wolf-Garten Anvil Pruner, I now know that it was previously the Scott brand pruner. I have owned the Scott pruner for at least a dozen years, if not longer, and even though it is still functioning very well, wanted to get another as insurance; had looked for years, with no luck. It was the BEST little pruner I ever had, (and I have purchased several others). Luckily, I hadn't accidentally thrown mine away! I ordered the WOLF-Garten Anvil pruner and it arrived today. It is indeed the same as the Scott, including the very solid heavy build. I am thrilled (well, as thrilled as I can be with a tool!) to have this. If you need a little pruner, get this one. You will not be disappointed!

Great strength

These pruners work great, they haven't failed me yet and I have been using them for a while. They are very sharp and effortless to use on some of the thicker branches. Other pruners would have shown their weaknesses by now but the WOLF-Gartens are holding up great. The soft grip is nice as well when you forget to grab the gloves.

I've been using this pruner for several months and have been very pleased with it. Best features are the sturdy locking mechanism and the handle appears to be sturdy as well. I have had problems with other brands, like Corona, where the handle fatigues over time and pinches my hand.

The spring that is supposed to reopen the blades after each cut never functioned correctly. They are useless.

After buying mutiple nippers at the local Home Depot and having them fall apart in my hands, these are a welcome relief.
