Description

One-hand bypass pruning shear with hardened carbon steel blade cuts branches up to 20 mm in diameter. Chrome plating on both blade and counter blade reduces friction and resists corrosion. The PU handle is overlaid with black TPR at contact points for a secure, comfortable grip. A new thumb-catch design exclusive to the 171 series enables quick, low-effort opening. Net weight of 169 g reduces hand fatigue during repetitive cutting tasks.

The bypass cutting action produces clean cuts that minimize tissue damage on green wood. A sap groove on the counter blade prevents resin buildup and simplifies cleaning. An integrated wire-cutting notch handles light wire without damaging the main cutting edge. The adjustment mechanism allows precise tuning of blade clearance as edges wear over time.

Technical construction of the one-hand pruning shear bypass

Blade and cutting mechanism

The main blade and counter blade are forged from hardened carbon steel and finished with chrome plating. This combination delivers edge retention and corrosion resistance in humid environments. The sap groove channels plant fluids away from the cutting zone. The wire-cutting notch is positioned near the pivot to maximize leverage on thin wire.

  • Blade material: hardened carbon steel with chrome plating
  • Cutting capacity: 20 mm maximum diameter
  • Cutting type: bypass
  • Sap groove on counter blade
  • Wire-cutting notch integrated
  • Adjustment mechanism for blade clearance

The bypass geometry ensures the blade passes the counter blade with minimal clearance. This design produces a shearing action that leaves a smooth cut surface. The adjustment bolt permits fine-tuning to compensate for wear and maintain cutting performance over the tool's service life.

Handle and ergonomic features

The handle is molded from red polyurethane and reinforced with black thermoplastic rubber at grip zones. This dual-material construction balances light weight with tactile security. The thumb-catch is redesigned for the 171 series to reduce thumb strain during repeated opening cycles. A shock-absorber cushions the impact when handles close fully.

  • Handle material: red PU with black TPR overlay
  • Hand size: medium
  • Orientation: right-hand use
  • Thumb-catch: new 171-series design
  • Shock-absorber included
  • Overall length: 200 mm
  • Depth: 21 mm
  • Net weight: 169 g
  • Gross weight with packaging: 235.8 g

The medium-size handle fits hands with palm widths between 80 and 95 mm. The right-hand configuration places the thumb-catch on the side most accessible to right-handed users. The shock-absorber extends tool life by reducing stress on the pivot and spring during high-volume cutting.

Common applications

This pruning shear suits routine garden maintenance tasks including deadheading, shaping ornamental shrubs, and thinning fruit tree branches. The 20 mm capacity handles rose canes, young grape vines, and herbaceous perennials. The wire-cutting notch is useful for removing plant ties and light support wire. Landscape professionals use the tool for detail work where larger loppers are impractical. Home gardeners appreciate the balance of cutting power and maneuverability in confined planting beds.

Maintenance and replacement parts

A service kit containing blade, spring, bolt and nut, and shock-absorber is available for field replacement. Regular cleaning of the sap groove and pivot area prevents resin accumulation. Periodic adjustment of the blade clearance maintains cutting efficiency as edges wear. The chrome plating requires no special treatment but benefits from wiping dry after use in wet conditions.
