The Non-stick Softgrip® Micro-Tip® Pruning Snip makes deadheading, trimming and shaping plants easy. It has earned the Arthritis Foundation’s Ease of Use Commendation. An Easy Action design automatically opens the blades after each cut to help make cutting easier. Stainless steel blades feature a precision-ground edge that stays sharp longer and cuts all the way to the tip for clean, healthy cuts on plants. In addition, blades are enhanced with a special non-stick coating to help reduce jamming and resin buildup when cutting sticky materials. The handle features Softgrip® touchpoints for a secure, comfortable grip. Easy-open lock and blade cover protects the blades during transport and storage.
