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

These secateurs are very sharp and need very little effort to cut quite large branches. The handle is covered in a rubber material that give plenty of grip. I don't have the biggest of hands but I am able to close them easily. The spring is strong enough to push them back open but not need to much force to close them. The only slightly fiddly bit is putting the lock back on. You need to squeeze them closed quite hard to put the lock on. Overall, I'm very pleased with my purchase and they feel a good quality well made pair of secateurs.

What a fabulous bit of kit. These snips are smaller and lighter than secateurs and therefore much easier to carry around in a pocket. As a result I find that I'm much more likely to have them with me, having left the heftier secateurs in the house. The snips are sturdy and built to last and I love the fact that they have a lifetime warranty. The lock strap is a simple latch on the back of the snips which means it can't be operated singlehandedly, as you might see on larger secateurs but equally it is a very strong, simple lock with very little to go wrong. Needless to say, these snips are very sharp and cut stems of varying thickness beautifully.

Strong secateurs. Easily cuts thin, soft deadheading, also hardwood stems and everything in between. Fairly heavy, but not too heavy for my arthritic hands. Can fill in a lifetime guarantee form on Kumura’s website.

A very well made pair of Secateurs, extremely sharp, and good fit in the hand, my old pair were coming to end of there life, so paid a little extra and glad I did as these are as good if not better than old ones, kimura, Japanese made, highly recommend

Delivery was fast, communications good and the secateurs so far work very well. I've only used them today. They seem strong and sharp, well designed and likely to last a long time with luck.

Rather more than I would usually pay for secateurs but worth it. Very sharp blades and I love how they open automatically when you squeeze them together. Very comfortable handles, especially if you have osteoarthritic hands.

Top quality product, sturdy, lightweight,well engineered featuring quality steel blades, compression springs and locking mechanism. Ergonomic handle grip and easy to use. Highly recommended.

If you are looking for a pair of pruners that bridges the gap between traditional Japanese craftsmanship and modern ergonomic utility, the Kimura Pro102 is a standout contender. Built for precision work, deadheading, and light-to-medium branch trimming, these scissors will soon become favorite among horticulturists and bonsai enthusiasts alike. The hallmark of the Pro102 is its incredibly clean cut. The high-carbon steel blades slice through stems like butter, leaving smooth cuts that help plants heal faster and reduce the risk of disease. Unlike traditional all-metal Japanese shears that can tire out your hands during long sessions, the Pro102 features contoured grips. The spring-loaded mechanism provides just the right amount of resistance, reducing hand fatigue significantly. The bottom latch lock is straightforward, robust, and stays out of the way while you are actively cutting.

These pruning shears exceeded my expectations, I'm so happy with this purchase! The quality is excellent, and the weight feels perfectly balanced in my hand. They cut cleaner and smoother than any other shears I’ve owned, with zero strain while trimming both plants and thicker tree branches. The grip feels natural, the motion is effortless, and the results are consistently sharp. I highly recommend these shears to anyone looking for reliable, well‑made garden tools.

Sehr gute Schnitthaltigkeit. Und endlich eine Scheere, bei der die Feder zum zu und aufhalten was taugt.

Very sharp but also quite small, not for people with large hands.

These are the best garden shears I have ever had, they are so great, every Gardner needs them.

Very good quality my husband loves them.
