## Overview

The ARS ARS-VS-8XZ Hand Pruner is a professional-grade gardening tool featuring a unique locking mechanism for easy one-handed operation, razor-sharp Marquench tempered high-carbon steel blades with hard chrome plating for rust and sap resistance, and lightweight yet durable die-cast aluminum handles. Designed ergonomically to minimize hand fatigue, it offers replaceable blades and anchored coil springs for long-lasting performance, making it the go-to pruner for serious gardeners and professionals alike.

## Description

The ultimate manual shears. The blades open quickly and easily with a simple push on the handles. ARS Rugged Manual Shears features precision-sharpened Marquench tempered blades, which start to be razor sharp and keep the edge longer. The blades are chrome plated for better rust and sap resistance. The blade is shifted at an angle to maintain the natural strength of the hand and minimize fatigue for pruning jobs throughout the day. The new "VSX" series also has a central plate on the back of the blade designed to maintain optimal torque and help restore torque properly. The docked spring won't jump on you The blades are capable and can be sharpened (but you probably won't need them for a while). 8" version fits most hands. See HP-VS7XZ for small hands and HP-VS9XZ for big hands.

Review: This ARS hand pruner is the first that I've owned and the best I've ever rused. It is incredibly sharp, lightweight and comfortable to hold. The unique locking mechanism feature is a plus. Superior quality, Made in JAPAN. 🇯🇵
Review: Die Gartenschere liegt gut in der Hand und ist einhändig ver-/entriegelbar. Das funktioniert super gut. Die Schnittleistung ist über jede Kritik erhaben, super scharf und schnitthaltig. Ich habe schon viele Scheren probiert, auch die aus der Schweiz (F***o). Diese Schere ist ihr bzgl. Schnittqualität und Schnitthaltigkeit deutlich überlegen. Egal ob dick oder dünn, hart oder weich, die Schere schneidet alles ohne zu rupfen. Die Schere geht auch durch etwas dickeres, holziges sauber ohne etwas zu reißen durch. Ich habe damit schon 2,5cm dicke, verholzte Weintriebe ohne großen Kraftaufwand sauber angeschnitten. Die Griffe sind auch ergonomisch gut gestaltet, so dass beim schließen nicht versehentlich die Fingerkuppen anschlagen. Die Klinge ist auch leicht zu schärfen. Ich besitze auch noch ein japanisches Modell (O******e), dass zwar bei den Schnitteigenschaften gleichwertig ist, aber bei größeren Händen bei der Ergonomie zu wünschen übrig lässt. Ich greife immer öfter zu diesem Modell und kann es nur jedem wärmstens empfehlen.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do these work well for a left handed person?**
A: I did use it with my left hand and it worked well but I’m just a little stronger with my right hand so as far as strength goes if you’re strong in your left hand it would work quite well.

**Q: Where do i find a replacement blade**
A: A replacement cutting blade set is about $50. Is cheaper to buy a new pruner instead of replacing the blades.

**Q: so... is it worth paying extra for these over the vs8z? and are these okay for small women's hands, or do I need to go with the 7 inch version?**
A: Got most of the ARS models. I would recommend VS-7Z for small hands.

**Q: Is this stainless steel?**
A: The body is made of high quality cast aluminum to keep the weight down and the blades are made of High Carbon Steel and Hard chrome plated for rust and sap protection.
