Hedge Shears - Lightweight Aluminium, SK5 Steel Blades

The blades are crafted from SK5 Japanese steel, known for its hardness and ability to hold a sharp edge.

These shears are designed for light to medium growth and typically handle stems up to approximately 1cm (0.4 inches) in diameter. For thicker branches, use loppers or secateurs.

It is recommended to lubricate the pivot point with a light machine oil every few uses, or whenever you notice the blades becoming stiff to operate.

No, these hedge shears are intended for regular garden maintenance and precise trimming of hedges and shrubs. They are not designed for heavy-duty pruning of thick, woody branches.

Please refer to the product packaging or the manufacturer's website for specific warranty information, as it can vary.

After use, clean the blades with a damp cloth, dry them thoroughly, and store the shears in a dry location. Applying a light blade oil can also provide an extra layer of protection against rust.

Clean any sap or debris from the blades and pivot point. Lubricate the pivot with a light machine oil.

The blades may be dull. Sharpen them using a sharpening stone or file. Ensure they are properly aligned.

Ensure you are not trying to cut stems that are too thick for the shears. Take breaks. The lightweight design should minimize fatigue, so check for proper grip and posture.

Ensure blades are thoroughly dried after cleaning and stored in a dry environment. Apply a thin coat of blade oil for protection.
