Felco FEL7 Model 7 Professional Secateurs, Red

Brilliant bought to care for my roses, nice and sharp and clean cuts and genuine too always weary with some amazon purchases

Superb pruners. Ergonomically brilliant. Feel like an extension to your own hand when picked up. A delight to use.I quite like them !!!

Known quality always the first pic

I bought a pair of these for my girlfriend about seven years ago and they're still as good as they ever were. I bought Felco's diamond sharpening stone too and along with common sense maintenance I can honestly see them lasting a lifetime.My mum needed a new pair of secateurs - she has a drawer full of cheap ones, I did my best to fix them up but they're just not good, they're semi-disposable really. So I bought another pair of Felcos and she's extremely pleased. I'll keep on top of the maintenance for her but putting them side by side with a knock off pair she has was laughable.I don't really garden myself (well I do, but I don't love it!) but I like my tools and appreciate a well made precision tool when I see it. There's tools you buy for an odd job that you probably won't use again, so a cheaper one might do. Then there's tools that will be a mainstay of your longterm hobby or work and it's always worth buying the best you can, both economically and for the best results.Secateurs definitely fall into that category as they'll potentially see decades of year-round usage. The fact that the Felcos can be easily maintained, stripped down, have their parts replaced and the business end is made from extremely high quality steel (they come with a precise cutting edge that will pass the "paper test") means that for less than £50 they're a sensible investment. I use a variety of cutting tools in my hobbies and the Felcos are as good as any of them.So, don't have a drawer full of rusty blunted tools! It's a shame that people replace their secateurs when they stop cutting or functioning as they should, whether that's through lack of maintenance or just buying the cheapest ones they can. It's wasteful and a false economy. Grab a pair of Felcos, maintain them, and you'll have years of gardening joy (whatever that is!).

We now have four pairs. One each for the top of the garden and again for the bottom.They have never let us down. Always cut through cleanly. Occasionally we abuse them, secure in the knowledge that Felco will repair them and they come back as new.Yes, they are expensive. We've tried cheaper but they become blunt or distorted. Worth a try at Amazon prices.

Here's a short review for the **Felco FEL6 Model 6 Compact Secateurs**:Fantastic, lightweight secateurs perfect for precision pruning! The ergonomically designed handles provide comfort, while the high-quality blades ensure clean cuts every time.Ideal for gardeners with smaller hands.

The media could not be loaded. Excellent quality, probably the best on the market, right hand only.

Buy quality, buy once!!!These snips are in my view the best one can buy
