Kimura® 8" Pro Bypass Garden Secateurs, Heavy Duty Premium Japanese SK5 Steel Blades, Non-Slip PVC Coated Handles, Lightweight & Ergonomic, Japanese Bypass Pruning Shears

What a love cutting action. The grip to open is great. You do have to tightly squeeze them to push the lock button over. I'm not a big person and the size felt great in my hand and to too heavy either. The blade is sharp. You pay for what you get. These will last more that one season. So I think they are value for money. The stability in your had is strong and wont fall out of you hand. These secateurs are excellent for trimming plans. roses, small branches on a bush. I really do like them.

Very solid, good edge and action. Can cope with large diameter cuts effortlessly. Possibly not the best design if you have small hands. Minor quibble a loop for a wrist strap would have been nice.

I think these are the best pair of secateurs I have ever bought, I 've cut back all the bushes, trees & shrubs that needed a spring chop, it took a few hours of constant chopping & then chopping the cuts to fit in my bin and I have no discomfort in my wrist or arm, so that's a big plus. They are light & comfortable to use & I love that I just press the handles when holding to open from the locked position, so handy, not having to constantly fiddle with a lever. I shall invest in more of these products for my garden & can now throw away my other useless secateurs (about four pairs).

I have gardened for over 50 years, and after using the secateurs for a week, I can honestly say that these are the nicest I have ever had (probably the most I have paid for a pair, but still good value). The action is smooth, they are extremely sharp, and I love the way that squeezing the handles unlocks them. If they last as well as they perform now, and they do appear well made, I shall be more than happy.

Not too heavy for a pensioner lady’s hand. I don’t have a small hand and I must say I find it quite a stretch when fully open. That said I find the grip comfortable and I’m hoping they will earn their keep in our wild garden.

I bought a pair of Kimura 8” Pro Bypass Garden Secateurs and have been impressed by the feel and quality of the product. The blade certainly is very sharp making cutting effortless and the secateurs are supplied with a lifetime warranty.

The secateurs arrived on day promised. They are probably the best secateurs I have ever used. They are easy to hold, have a very smooth action and deliver a very clean cut. In addition the blades keep themselves clean after use which is indicative of a good, clean cut. The locking/release mechanism is stiff but eases of after use and works really well. I'm delighted with them and am looking forward to years of use.

Great product, robust, well finished and very sharp.
