They're suitable for both right and left handed gardeners and although the secateurs are lightweight, at just 330g, they still feel robust and hard wearing.

Every model of Felco Secateurs (besides the F31 Anvil model) features two blades for bypass style cutting. One of the blades is razor sharp and this is called the cutting blade; this blade bypasses the second blade (which is called the anvil blade) to make the cut in the same way a pair of scissors would. This has been proven to be the very best of way of producing a clean cut. The wire cutting notch in the blade provides for every eventuality and avoids the temptation to risk blunting your toolEach pair is ergonomic and features non slip handles; great for working longer in the garden without suffering from tired wrists or hands. We love them. Revolving handle on some models spreads muscular effort over all 5 fingers, reducing cutting effort by 30 %, thus reducing risks of tendintis and inflammation. When pruning, they cut through almost every material on test with little resistance. Live, green wood was easy to prune and even hard, dried wood was simple to snip. This is thanks to a carbon steel blade covered in a plasma coating, which Kent and Stowe claim makes these harder than any other blade. You can truly feel the quality with the smooth tight action and superb cutting power, combined to offer you an unparalleled level of precision. The easy to use design always provides a clean cut which encourages the efficient healing of the wood.
