Masamune Shears
For Box Clipping & Topiary
New from Masamune are these lovely shears, ideal for box clipping, topiary and other delicate jobs. Long blades (9 1/2", 24 cm) and short handles (11", 27 cm) give great balance for detailed work, and the blue paper steel is - and stays - lethally sharp.
If you do a lot of clipping (not hacking) you'll love the feel of these.
Tip: When clipping box or yew, keep a bucket of water handy, mixed with a dash (5%, no more) of bleach. Dunk the clippers in every so often, and it stops the leaf resin from cloging up the blades. The bleach prevents the spreading of nasty viruses between plants.
Total length: 23", 58 cm
