Garden care is an enjoyable and relaxing activity, but it is also a responsibility that requires scissors and gardening tools that are of high quality. Among the most important equipment for maintaining plants, shrubs and fruit trees are hand garden shears, along with various useful accessories. These tools are essential for pruning dry branches, shaping shrubs, removing diseased plant parts and improving the health of vegetation.
Types of manual garden shears
Hand shears are available in several varieties, each with a specific purpose.
Bypass shears - designed for precise, clean cuts, these use two overlapping blades, similar to regular scissors; they are ideal for cutting green pruning shears, thin branches and flowers.
Telescopic pruning shears - equipped with extendable handles, these tools allow you to prune taller branches without the need for a ladder; they are suitable for fruit trees and large shrubs.
Vine shears - specially designed for the maintenance of vines and plants with delicate stems; they have sharp blades and a mechanism that ensures a precise cut, preventing damage to the splints.
Accessories for manual garden shears
To keep your shears in top condition and prolong their life, there are a number of useful accessories.
Blade sharpeners - indispensable tools for keeping the blades sharp, ensuring precise cuts and reducing the effort required.
Lubricants and special oils - help prevent rust and keep the cutting mechanism in optimum condition.
Spare parts - interchangeable blades, tensioning springs and set screws are available for quick repairs, extending the life of your shears.
Protective gloves - provide increased comfort and protect hands from injury while working.
How to choose the right scissors?
There are several factors to consider when choosing hand shears.
Type of vegetation - if you need a shear for fragile plants, the bypass version is ideal.
Size and ergonomics - the rubberised handles, ergonomic design and light weight provide increased comfort and reduce hand fatigue.
Blade material - models with stainless steel or Teflon-coated blades are more resistant to corrosion and ensure a smooth cut.
Locking mechanism - a secure locking system prevents accidents and protects the blades when not in use.
Battery-operated scissors are also available on our website.
Maintaining your garden shears correctly
To enjoy long-term performance, it's essential to look after your shears properly.
Clean the blades after each use - it's recommended to remove sap and plant debris to prevent dirt build-up and jamming.
Sharpen the blades periodically - sharp shears reduce cutting effort and prevent damage to plants.
Lubricate the cutting mechanism - apply special oil to keep moving parts functional and prevent corrosion.
Store tools in a dry place - excessive moisture can lead to rust, shortening the life of the equipment.
