Product description
Specially designed for making clean, concave cuts on bonsai branches up to 12mm.
An essential tool (or gift) for any bonsai enthusiast’s collection.
Handcrafted in Japan from carbon steel, these trusty branch cutters are renowned for their superior strength and ability to hold an edge – ideal for precise cuts that help your trees heal quickly with minimal scarring.
Best usage
The straight edge allows users to cut close to the base of a branch or twig without leaving a stub. This helps wounds heal reducing the risk of dieback or infection.
How to use bonsai branch cutters
Visualise the shape of your bonsai and decide which branches to remove or shorten.
Position the blades parallel to the branch with the cutting edge just above the intended cut point.
Apply firm, steady pressure and close the handles to make a smooth, clean cut.
Clean and dry the cutters thoroughly after each use. If working on multiple trees, disinfect the blades between cuts to prevent the spread of disease. Sharpen regularly for a clean, crisp cut, and apply a little camellia oil to protect the steel. Store in a dry place to prevent rust and corrosion.
