Product description
Whether you’re just starting out in bonsai – or updating your tool collection, Kaneshin Bonsai Scissors are an essential piece of kit. They’re designed for trimming leaves, buds, small branches, and fine roots – but their sharpness and precision make them suitable for any detailed pruning work. Made from Japanese carbon steel, with elegant rounded handles, these scissors are prized for their quality and durability.
Best usage
Ideal for pruning tasks including trimming leaves, buds, small branches, and fine roots.
When trimming bonsai branches cut diagonally (following the wood grain) rather than straight across as this can damage the blades. Avoid exceeding the scissors’ maximum cutting capacity (6-8mm) and use the base of the blades for heavier cuts. Don’t use to cut wire, metal, plastic, or other hard materials.
Clean thoroughly to remove sap, resin, and debris. Dry thoroughly to prevent rust and treat the blades with camellia oil. Check the blades regularly and sharpen as needed.
