Advantages: cuts well long lasting blasde

Disadvantages: none

Today let me tell you about a pair of loppers that I use on butterfly conservation work parties. These are the Spear and Jackson 22 inch anvil lopper.
Spear and Jackson make really good blades and these are a very good pair of loppers indeed.

*Handles.
These loppers have a shiny aluminum handle quite thick this has black non slip rubbery grips on the end. The grips make it easy and comfortable to hold these loppers. The length of these loppers is 22 inch/60 cm. When holding these loppers they feel substantial yet light.

*Blades.
The blades are made of steel which has been hardened and tempered they are PTFE coated. All this makes them very strong durable and they are rust resistant. These blades have a bypass action A bit like scissor action. This pair of loppers should last a long time.

*Cut.
These loppers cut very well are good on green wood making a clean cut without bruising. They are equally good on dead wood too. I can not remember which trees bushes I cut using these loppers but I have cut several, varieties. These loppers will cut a branch up to38mm in diameter.

*Use.
I have used these on branches that need pruning. Fruit trees, roses, budleigha and many other bushes. They really are good to use easy to hold and cut well. As well as pruning in my garden these pruners are ideal for use in conservation clearing areas of shrubs like dog wood . I go on organised work parties with plans and reasons for shribb cutting .

*Price and availability .
You can buy these loppers from http://www.gardeners-world.net/prod_show.asp?id=90 3 for £26.99. At Amazon they are £13.99 amazing, reduced from RRP 28.99.They are available at other on and on line garden shops too.

These really should be a good pair of shears as they are made by that old trusted form Spear and Jackson. Spear and Jackson have been making blades for cutting for many years. Beginning in 1760 in Sheffield a town well know for its steel works, this firm has developed from making cutlery to making good garden equipment

Summary: A pair of good loppers
