HP-300L Needle Nose Fruit Pruners

Makes dividing dahlias so easy! Nice and sharp

I have used these pruners for 20+ years. They are the best pruners made for clipping and snipping all leafy shrubs (like boxwwod etc,), cutting flowers and clipping grass. They cut just about everything 1/4" or less effortlessly. They are much more lightweight and comfortable than all other brands of this type of pruner on the market. No more sore or tired wrists. They last forever.

I am a commercial grower and grow a huge field of cut flowers for my farm stand. I have been using this make and model of pruuers for four years now and they are light weight, easy to grip, never get stuck shut, always sharp and easy to use. The color stands out so you can find them when you set them down some place you may have forgotten. The best part about these clippers is because I cut hundreds of stems in a day every day and night, my hands don't get fatigued as easy as they have over the years with other brands of clippers. I even use these to cut my sunflowers. I love these and wish I had found them back in 1985 when I started in this business. I also want to add that for the money you can't find better and I have paid a lot more money for other brands of clippers and they can't hold a candle to these.

This inexpensive $13 ARS needle nose pruner is actually quite good. It is manufactured in Vietnam with materials sourced from Japan.

These "needle nose" pruners are very nice for what I paid - twelve bucks. Let me start of by stating my disappointment that they were made in Vietnam instead of Japan. In fact, the manufacturer's box they came in had an inventory sticker over the "Made in" location (maybe by coincidence) and as I peeled it back, it clearly indicated that it was Made in Vietnam by ARS. That said, I must say that the quality is top notch - very nicely finished, very sharp edge (as expected from ARS products), and the handles have this nice built in loop to keep the spring bound handles in the closed position. So, I'm going to give these 5 Stars for the price point. EDIT -- I was very happy with these ARS Vietnam-made pruners when I first received, at the low price I purchased them at, but now after having them for many months, I'm dropping my score to 4 stars. They simply do not deserve 5 stars. The blades started to corrode so much that I had to use naval jelly rest preventer on them. They're still a decent choice for the price, but the fact these aren't made in Japan and the rust issue, and the fact that they really aren't materially better than a cheaper set of Corona pruners, they don't deserve the 5 star review I had previous granted them.

I have a landscaping company. I give a pair to every new employee on their first day. They are instructed to only use for dead heading herbaceous plants, no woodies or they will dull faster. They are great for getting down into the plant, very sharp, clean cuts. They last the whole season w daily use.

Excellent pruning shears! Perfect for florists, providing clean and quick cuts. Comfortable to hold and does not rust. Highly recommend!

Just the thing to carry in a gardener's pocket. Spring loaded- so easier on your hands and the blades don't get stuck together. Not for lopping but very useful for all kinds of pruning. The handle closure at the bottom is not that easy to get on and off but keeps the weight and price down.
