Sakagen Flower Scissors - Summer Edition - 170mm

$72.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

Fantastic little floral scissors, in a range of fun colours.

The Sakagen Flower Scissors are a perfect combination of the traditional ikebana style form, with ergonomic resin-moulded handles and fluorine coated blades.

The first tool you'll reach for for cut flowers in the kitchen, greenhouse, conservatory or garden. They'll even handle some woody pruning if required.

Use them with your index finger outside the handle, in the little indent.

Usage:

Japanese steel is hard and sharp. To avoid chips and preserve the steel edge, do not cut wire, metal, stone, or plastic.
Do not twist or apply uneven pressure
It’s better to cut diagonally across branches (not straight across), so you cut along the fibres
For heavier cuts, make sure you’re using the base of the blades (not the tips)

Reviews

“I wish I had discovered this years ago. Made the perfect gift for the man who ‘has it all’. Beautifully crafted, I was pleasantly surprised how heavy and sharp it was. Would buy again.”

“I love the easy access both sides, the height was sufficient to grown runner beans on a tall mesh frame and it’s very easy to put together but may need two people to lift the net over the framework. Just love it.”

“I have one and it is a game changer. Enough pockets to totally fit all the tools I wanted to carry. It's great to have them all in one handy place when I'm working in the garden instead of floating around in the bottom of the wheelbarrow.”

“Where has this tool been all my life? It is awesome, works brilliantly, even with older dried out flax. Literally like a hot knife through butter."
