I've even used it to pull a small brush pile out of the pond when my bride had a big CC hang her up! Last edited by Bill D.; 02/26/19 10:23 PM. Be Brave Enough to Suck at Something New!

I have used it a couple times on FA and it makes the chore much easier compared to the garden rake I had on hand before. The job is still tedious, but the tool was well worth the 25$ I had in it. I can't speak for any of the cutters out there. I'm glad I don't have that problem, Seasonal FA is quite enough. Fish on!, Noel

This tool is very good, especially if you have a huge garden. My mother uses these scissors in all those who are comfortable for him. Despite this recently, we ordered a fashionable designer who made us a beautiful garden. I like it very much, and I paid a lot of money for the tools for working in the garden. I like it when my mom comes from work, he has a profession in the garden, and she is glad that her son gave her a gift, it makes me feel calm. https://www.hausandgarten.com/products/haus-garten-compact-titanium-bypass-pruning-shears Last edited by Martinka; 04/20/21 05:51 AM.
