Fiskars 9124 Professional Bypass Pruning Shears

This is my first-ever pair of pruning shears so I have no way to compare them with other pruners. Having never used a pruner before, I wished it would have come with more directions than it did; for instance, I had no idea which side of the blade to hold "upwards" for the best cutting leverage, and it says the blade tension is adjustable, but I have no idea how to adjust it. It does have a diagram on blade replacement on the card (but no part number listed for the replacement blades).

I ordered this to help with trimming down a burning bush that had grown all the way up to the soffit and gutters and had grown completely out of control. Then for cutting the branches up so they would fit in my trash cart. It worked great for that.

Kind of hard to tell the size here from the picture, they are about 11" long. The description says they are good for up to 1 inch in diameter. Maybe I'm just not strong enough, but I had to use a small hand saw to cut through the wooden branches that were an inch thick. I tried at first using the pruners with a two-handed method for more cutting strength, however I was afraid I'd break the pruner. Even though these come with a great full lifetime warranty, I didn't want to chance breaking them by stressing them out too much. Maybe I would have done better with a ratcheting pruner, but as long as these made my job easier, I'm happy.

So I used the hand saw on my large branches that were basically old wood and for anything more green and soft, ¾" and under, the pruners worked fine. Being ergonomically correct, they are comfortable in the hand, and went through the smaller branches like a hot knife cuts through butter.

I don't have a lot of experience buying pruning shears, which is why I went strait to Fiskars. I have yet to purchase a yard tool from Fiskars that I haven't been absolutely pleased with. In my opinion, if it has the Fiskars name on it, it will be sharp, quality, and will have a long life of heavy use.

I went with these particular shears over other Fiskars shears because they seemed to be higher build quality. These shears cut large branches with no problem. My strength is the limiting factor.

The lock mechanism was difficult to dis-engage when I pulled the shears out of the package, and I have yet to be able to re-engage the lock. However, that doesn't affect the cutting ability, so I'm giving this product 5 stars.
