OkatsuneHedge Trimmer, No.231

Be warned, these shears are lethally sharp, which, in the right hands, is exactly what you want. They are lightweight, beautifully balanced and a complete pleasure to use. They will cut privet, hawthorn, shrubs and box hedges to precise perfection and, to seal the deal, they come presented in a very elegant leather sheath. Simply the best shears we’ve ever owned over a lifetime of gardening.

These truly are a pleasure to own and use. “Out of the box” they look awesome with handsome handles and a leather sheath. The real pleasure starts when you use them. They are very light weight and cut beautifully, making it very easy to shape any shrub or bush. Totally worth the money.

The wife did her research in finding what simply are the best garden shears about. Yea, they cost a little, but by gove they are light, extremely sharp and so easy to use. One very very happy wife, happy in her happy place in the garden.

They are very sharp, well balanced and easy to use. Simply the best shears I have ever used.

Astonishingly light and compact. What I really like apart from the quality of he cutting blade is the fact that these shears could be mended and parts replaced. I could have chosen the ones with longer blades though these are very precise and can be used for Topiary and of course Box.I have a pair of Okatsune secateurs too.I like good tools and am sure these will outlive me!

Just received these awesome shears..They are light weight and so easy to use when pruning .They make pruning fun they cut through everything with ease,,extremely sharp. Just love them,,,

Super sharp and a pleasure to use.

Arrived on time, well packed - I love them - so well balanced and sturdy with their own little 'holster' to protect them - just a shame I can't read the labels/instructions as they are in Japanese.

Shears is lightweight, sharp, & easy to use. Great buy!

Discovering these shears after witnessing their effectiveness at a local nursery has been nothing short of a gardening revelation. The fact that they're Made in Japan speaks volumes about their quality, and they certainly live up to that reputation. From the moment I laid hands on them, it was clear that they're a cut above the rest. The razor-sharp blade makes trimming a sheer delight, and the precision they offer is truly impressive. The added tidbit that Stihl rebrands and sells them under their name for a higher price only reinforces their excellence. These shears have become my go-to tool for topiary sculpting and all sorts of precision pruning tasks, proving that investing in quality tools can elevate even the most mundane gardening chores into an enjoyable experience.

These shears are very light weight making them much easier to handle than standard garden shears. Also, the blades are made of high grade steel with a super sharp edge. I used them to cut down the tall grasses in the garden and they cut like going though butter.It is important to keep fingers well away from these sharp blades !

やや重たい感じがしますが許容範囲です。なんといっても岡恒ブランド、使いやすくよく切れます。

I have bought other brands of shears as well as cordless hedgers. These do a fantastic job tidying up after quickly shaping with a hedger or for small ball shaped hedges etc. Compared to a box store brand of shears, these feel incredibly light and well balanced. I actually bought these for my wife who is a gardener and she absolutely loves these shears. She also has the secateurs which are equally fantastic.Yes they are dearer than something from Box stores like Bunnings etc but well worth the money. My wife describes them as almost therapeutic to use!
