Types of everyday pruners available at Rock Around The Block
- Blade style–
- Bypass – most common variant and used for green / living foliage
- Anvil – Heavy duty tools, best used when pruning dry or dead branches. But their blades tend to crush the stem, so they are used mainly for pruning dead material or thinning brush.
- Cutting mechanism– Most common lopper cutting mechanisms are:
- Geared – these tools have a gear mechanism at the fulcrum enabling effortless cutting
- Ratchet – these pruners latch enabling the users to release and squeeze again, thus enabling cutting in smaller easier steps instead of one stroke.
- Hand size - Ergonomic handle to suit Large, Medium or Small hand sizes
