Secateurs are an essential tool that every gardener must have, whether they have to maintain a small balcony, a terrace, a small city garden, a large country garden or an orchard. Anvil secateurs differ from the classic secateur in that its sharp cutting blade, sharpened on both sides, is thicker and crushes against the completely flattened metal part opposite. This prevents the branches from twisting during cutting. The gear and pinion system located at the junction between the blades multiplies the force applied to the handles, reducing muscle effort in the hands and wrists. These Spear & Jackson anvil secateurs are therefore well suited for pruning old or dead wood.
