Kent & Stowe Traditional Bypass Secateurs

These traditional style Bypass action secateurs have 2 sharpened blades that pass over each other to make a clean and precise healthy cut, like a pair of scissors. They are therefore ideal for cutting delicate stems as a bypass action is less likely to cause bruising to the stem. Ideal for deadheading, taking cuttings, pruning and cutting shoots down to the nearest bud, these handy bypass secateurs are invaluable as part of your gardening kit. They are particularly useful for the general pruning of live green wood, shrubs and roses. Bypass secateurs, however, are not good for using on dead wood as this will quickly blunt the blades.
