“BRILLIANT. The ratchet mechanism reduces the force required to hack through tough plant material. This reduces the stress on your hand and the potential for strains during use. I decided to try them as I am now 60, not as strong and resilient as I was. However, I think they have benefits for younger people as well, to protect their hands from excessive strain, prolong their strength and resilience. I am hoping the blades stay sharp for many years.”
“These are good quality items which is what you would expect from Hoselink. We have had many pairs of these ratchet type pruners over the years and they are excellent but suffer from wear and tear. Hoselink's ones are robust and long wearing.”
