Q: What are these garden snips used for?
These pruning snips make light-duty, precise cuts on flowers, fruit, vegetables and bonsai in tight spaces where full-size shears won't fit.
Trim stems up to 0.2" thick.
This is an excellent pair of everyday snips for light-duty trimming. Made in Japan from carbon steel, the 2" long narrow-nosed blades allow precise cuts in tight spaces – useful for snipping flowers, fruits, vegetables and bonsai.
Durable yet lightweight and comfortable for either left or right-handed users, the snips have compact handles with a rubberized coating for non-slip grip. A torsion spring helps minimize hand fatigue by providing just enough tension that the handles open automatically after each cut without being difficult to squeeze. A loop holds them in the closed position when not in use.
The snips measure around 7" overall and are suitable for green growth up to 0.2" thick.

Draw each carbon-steel blade across a sharpening stone or file at its existing bevel angle to restore a clean edge.
Wipe sap and plant residue from the blades after each use, since dried residue can gum up the torsion spring's action.
