Okatsune 103 Bypass Secateurs

Product Information

The big chunky catch at the bottom has a crisp action that’s easy to use, even with cold wet hands or muddy gloves.

Due to the unique shape of the hollow ground blade the sap flows away from the blade, and the blades will not come apart. Furthermore, Okatsune combines the hardness with a special flexibility, so that the cutting blade always aligns with the counter blade, even after intensive usage.The blades of these razor-sharp secateurs are forged from the finest Japanese steel (the same steel from which the Katana sword of the Samurai are made), and enable you to effortlessly cut through branches up to 25 mm. Even after extensive and intensive usage, the cutting blade consistently aligns with the counter blade. These pruners have earned a reputation for their exceptional blade hardness, as they are forged from the finest Izumo Yasugi steel, ensuring long-lasting sharpness. These simple yet strong secateurs, with their specially engineered blade angle, provide a smooth clean cut without crushing. We import and sell the full Japanese product and not the products made and packaged for the UK market.

These secateurs are great for doing work around the garden, work on Niwaki or rough pruning on your bonsai trees. The steel is hardened to 60 to 61 on the Rockwell scale for a long lasting edge and the handles covered in red and white grips, both for comfort and because the red is highly visible in daylight, whilst the white can be seen more easily at night. If you notice a decline in cutting effectiveness, you can sharpen the blades using the Okatsune whetstone. If you notice that the shears are cutting less well, you can grind them using the Okatsune whetstone (Okatsune 412).The larger (9") have longer handles providing more leverage while the smaller (7") are ideal for those with smaller hands or for use indoors with houseplants. If you notice that the shears are cutting less well, you can grind them using the Okatsune whetstone.
