Topiary Shears What's in the garden shed?
A well stocked garden shed will make gardening a pleasure, so check out the tools that you do not yet own – they will be a perfect gift. We really like the range of tools made by Spear & Jackson which combine the look of the old with the efficiency of new materials: stainless steel, rust resistance and the lovely hardwood wishbone handles – plus 10 year guarantee. However if you have a different preference we will be happy to find those instead.

All
parts are replaceable and there is an after sales, repair and maintenance
service available (for a nominal charge). Solid-forged metal alloy
handles, precision-made hardened, replaceable cutting blade and an
anvil blade with a sap groove. A hardened nut and bolt permit exact
adjustment of both the cutting and anvil blades. A rubber cushion
and shock absorber provides smooth working and soft closing of this
pruner. Whew!.... Model No. 2 is the original Felco pruner, unchanged for over
forty years - although much imitated the world over. Length 81/2inches,
Weight 8.5 ounces.
for
the smaller hand, or as a second pair. It is as comfortable to use
and every bit as sturdy and powerful as any other Felco pruner. Ideal
for small pruning work such as grape vines, shrubs and floristry. The shorter blades facilitate closer
cutting to the stem of the plant. Length 71/4 inches, Weight 7.5 ounces.
I
can personally vouch for this lopper which I have used for two years
now whilst clearing coppice - it's fantastic, lightweight, (0.5kg)
and stocky (420mm long). The ratchet system makes all cutting astonishingly
easy.
The
carbon steel blades on this lightweight shear trim untidy hedges
with minimum effort: almost like cutting through butter, I just love
using them. The extra long handles (0.25m overall) make reaching
up to the top of a hedge most satisfying.
This
telescopic expanding rake will not last you a lifetime but you
will find it invaluable (and rush to replace it as soon as you decide
that its daily use has bent the tines a little too much or that
a bit of rust has reduced the easy sliding handle). I use it for everything,
leaves, weeds, gravel paths, scarifying the moss, in short it is
almost my favourite tool, and cheap at the price. A really useful
present to ask for.
You
will trim your box topiary swiftly and easily with these handy shears.
Grass edges can be neatened up in awkward corners and then again,
this is the original tool required to shear sheep, so one way or
another, how can you be without it?
