Fruit trees should be pruned every year. Good tools help make the job much easier. Grandpa has used many brands of hand pruners, long handled pruners or loppers, and saws. But he realizes that as a home orchardist, the price of tools is quite a factor.

Grandpa always preferred FELCO® hand pruners since they are known for being the top-of-the line and lasting a long time. Well worth the price for a long-lasting pruner.
HICKOK® long handled loppers have proven themselves to be great for those bigger cuts that need to be made. Hand pruners can often cut up to one inch if used properly, but loppers make the job much easier.
CORONA® is suitable for lighter use and is more economical.

Grandpa prefers bypass pruners which have a faster, cleaner cutting action. Blade and anvil cutters just will not cut as well or easily as bypass shears so we do not recommend them.

We also stock parts, if needed, for most of the above. Just email us and we can see if we can help you. However, under normal backyard orchardist use, you may never wear a pair out.

Shipping for these items will be adjusted as our calculator is based on shipping trees in a larger box than this will likely be shipped in.  This could also be shipped with trees if on the same order.  We will strive to ship in the most economical manner. WE DO NOT SHIP TO CANADA OR OUTSIDE OF THE US.
