When I first began to garden, I purchased inexpensive tools..and repurchased them a few months later, had cutters fall apart on me..or not cut at all, basically after a couple of years I decided to spend more money on my tools for gardening..as an electrician I never skimped on my tools for work. Nothing but Kline snips for example-decided to treat myself the same at home.

I'm also a quilter and use nothing but Fiskars scissors, rotary cutters etc so when I discovered Fiskar gardening tools I was very pleased.

This is my 8th or 10th  purchase of these bypass pruners over the past 25 years.  I gave them as gifts to gardener friends, have gone thru 3 pair myself (almost 10 years..not bad!) and even fixed a pair that spent the winter in rain and snow..I found it when I was putting in a new garden!.

Moving into a new house on the same lot, I decided to reward myself with several new gardening tools...I have almost an acre to develop here in suburban Portland and these sheds are the best I've used for roses etc.
