My aunt gave me a pair of those Felco pruners about 20 years ago and I've been using (and loving) them ever since. They've never had any issues - excellent quality!
A fantastic subject to cover. For years I used cheap (or mid range) never really had a issue when kept really sharp. But I did notice the cheap wear down quicker when sharpening. A good quality product is a investment for any budding garden enthusiast.
The F7 Felco is for Large hand but the F12 is for Medium size hands. People need to be aware of what size they can handle. It's amazing how big the F7 looks even in your hand! You mentioned F8 but at 1:17 it showed F7. The F8 just doesn't have the swivel handle. Great video!
@@jamesprigioni I love them. I got them at Costco a couple of years ago, probably $25-ish. I've always had great results with Fiskars. I have some loppers that are 25-30 years old that still amaze me. They used to be made in England, I think.
I still use my original Felco shears from 1992 when I worked at Watrous Plantation. Landscaped many new homes on Sanibel island, Naples and lee county and even was privileged to replace many of the dead Royal Palms that Thomas Edison Planted. Felco also has a great rebuild kit as well. Great product.
I had to stop and tune up my pruners while cutting scion from my pear trees last week .. This video told me what I wanted to know about those Felco pruners, so tyvm, sir!
Going with the F7 over the F11 now. Thanks for the demo. Looks like it will work for me since you are tall and have big hands too. Love the rotating handle and I think it's worth the extra money. Just got my first tree order in for Spring. Starting my food forest this spring and it's been a lot of work to get prepped. Thanks for all your informative and inspiring videos!
The nice part of the more expensive prunerrs are how they hold up over time. Cheap primers work fairly well when they are brand new, but they quickly loose the edge and lock switches can snap off, handles can crack and blades can separate. Sometimes i screw up and leave my primers out in the garden by accident. Exposure to weather will immediately rust the cheap tool, where the pricey one is more forgiving.
I bought £0.50 (60 US cents) pruners at the supermarket on clearance from £1 or £2. Same springs as my Felco 2, 8 if and when the time comes that a Felco spring breaks or is lost I just need the springs to last a few days to order a new Felco spring. In the meantime they are just in my kitchen drawer for chopping up chicken bones to put in the compost caddy. Another cheap pair sits in the greenhouse for chopping off ddead plants in winter to save cleaning my Felcos or Tobisho. I don't want to bad use or leave my good tools in the greenhouse.
So happpy to see other people promoting the felcos, ive been using them for years and they where single best purchase i made for my allotment they are the onyl thing thats never been replaced
I have small hands and don't have much power. Usually for thicker twigs even, I have to use loppers. The rotating handle must be good . Thank you for the demonstration.
Same for me! Definitely want to invest in tools. Ever since I spent more on better quality, chores aren't chores. They're fun! I have mainly Fiskars since I go to Home Depot and can only get mid-range items for now. Would love a Felco. I heard that first smooth cut through. It's so satisfying!
I've had my Felco pruners for about four years and am very protective of them. I have probably another 10 pairs of pruners that I let the high school students use on my Christmas tree farm, but they don't get to touch my Felcos. I've found a decent pair of Stihl pruners for about $18 and I buy one or two pairs of them each year for the kids to use.
Hi, I'm from Germany. A felco pruner is a pruner for life. A lot of professional gardeners in Germany use these pruners. The felco 7 is about 48 Euro in Germany.
I find that good quality tools are always easier to work with and it feels great to use them...I have a Swiss peeler I bought 30 years ago still very sharp and easy to use...I always make the investment in good tools as they are a pleasure to work with and last for a very long time...blessings from Australia
A good pair of secateurs go a long way, especially in a food FOREST. I'm a cheap person myself and can't justify $75 on secateurs. However, I got some from my brother for Christmas that is pretty high-end compared to mine. His make a nice clean cut with almost no force it's crazy! The cheapo ones I have are like dull and kind of push/pinch the three together rather than severing it. I highly suggest if you have a food forest you invest in some good secateurs, its night and day compared to the cheap Chinese ones that are dull and flimsy. Awesome vid as always James, I always get a good feeling, oooh yeah when I watch your videos. ^^
Awesome dude, exactly what I've been looking for! I've been using my trusty Corona razor tooth saw for bigger branches but it has trouble digging into smaller diameter branches so I've been looking into pruners trying to decide what to get :) Thanks James!
If you have small hands, try the Felco #13. They have longer handles so the leverage helps when you don’t have a lot of hand strength. Felcos are Quality.
If the branch is a bit thicker don't just squeese harder but also move the tool up and down so it can cut easier. When you are using a knife to cut something you make a back and forth motion, instead of only putting pressure on it without any motion.
Greetings James .. I'm really hard on my tools so I don't tend to spend crazy money..also my hubby has a habit of micro-managing and either using my mine for things not intended for gardening or misplacing them.. I'll be working harder with him this year to improve his behavior 😁😁..thank you for all your help and information.. blessings to you and Tucker 😇 😇..
I own the Felco 2 and need a second pair. I was thinking about getting the #7's but some people who bought them report the rotating handle can be a bit awkward at times...it would be nice to hear your thoughts on it after using it this spring.
Hey brother, just a small critique. Both cutting blades are high carbon and hardened steel. Cutting tools are made with carbon steel and then hardened for strength and edge retention
A good pruner makes such a big difference. A pruner with a thin blade made out of quality material is the way to go. Most cheap pruners have a thick blade with a greater bevel angle on the cutting part of the blade, making it much more difficult.
Perhaps you aren’t very fluent in steel, but the felco is high carbon steel. The felco heat treats the blade so it’ll hold an edge longer. The benefit to carbon steel is edge retention and ease of sharpening. Down fall is it rusts so you need to keep it clean and keep it oiled. China carbon steel is probably a super cheap low grade of carbon steel.
You have inspired me to start my own food forest in my backyard. Thank you for your contribution to society and a more sustainable planet. I would like to start some vegetables from seed this year. Do you have any recommendation for seed catalogs you prefer?
My sheers leave the back portion of the bark hanging on and it keeps my sheers stuck to the branch until I pull the bark away which can’t be good for disease prevention.
I bought the best pruners ever off QVC once. Sliced like butter. So good they were stolen. 😂😭 I've never been able to find them again. Thanks for this vid, as I'm still looking for a good sub.
Try Ars vs8z pruners from japan. Top Quality steel and great squeeze release function. Also please test the soft cutting performance. The ars cut fresh green super Young soft stems without any crushing. You can get on ebay usually for around $40, but need to be patient as they come from Japan. I have nothing to do with the company just love the pruners. You might even put your felcos in your pocket after u try the ars. I'm happy to bring mine down to test if you have any interest. Fellow NJ guy from Monmouth County. Thanks for your great vids.
Nice! I was wondering if i should buy some good ones. I got some cheap ones at walmart that barely work after one year. Think they are cheap fiskers. But ill get me some felcos
I have long fingers. I would like to try these out at some point to see if the rotation keeps them clear. My fingers nails snap on the palm handle! JAMES!!! You had me on edge with those tests...🙈 2👁️2🕳️
Have you seen a quite old saw, how it's cutting the tree?!? You don't apply the force so that you break the saw in two. The goal is to cut the tree in two :) Actually, I can't buy a $75 version for some reasons, among them, the shipping alone would be more than a pair of the cheap ones...so I learned how to correctly cut with the poor version of pruners.
The only pruners that give me trouble are my Felco's... Jamb up on every 2nd cut. Was so disappointed after using them. Whilst I don't have the absolute cheapest I found that the close to cheapest were just as good as the Felco. I had one pair for over 10 years.. Cost me $10...
I use a lot of hand tools and find it best through personal experiences that it's best to spend the extra money and purchase quality tools that will last for many years.
i bought some black and decker pruners and literally that shit snapped trying to cut like a half inch semi hardwood branch. i only got like maybe 10 cuts on it.
Unless the anvil pruner is the quality of metal the blade is made from and if the user resharpens it when needed. cheap metal does not stay sharp and may not sharpen well either. A good thing to note is that hand pruners have a limit as to the diameter they are supposed to be used for. To ignore that is to cause the blades to spring, forcing them apart, which makes them cut poorly. Those cheap ones are not worth using on anything but flower stems I'd say. Good review. Loved the fail test! I have owned Felco pruners for years, since working in the nursery industry. A regular pair here runs around 45 or 50 dollars as I remember, at least they do here in Portland OR. Lifetime tools you can hand down to your kids. They come in different sizes too so if you have a small hand like I do that' is a big deal. A standard pruner is often too large which stresses out my hand making pruning a real pain, literally. You get what you pay for.
I love watching your gardening channel and can’t wait till next spring to try out somethings.. Maybe you can answer a question on lemon tree plants. I started a lemon plant with seeds from a lemon that I had seen on line. First it doesn’t smell like lemon like they said my whole would smell like but my question is it is about two and a half feet tall and don’t know if I am supposed to cut it down or just keep going with it. Also should I plant it outside in the summer and if I do will it make it through the winter? (Live in Illinois). Any suggestions please. Thank you 🙋🏼
I need a new pair of pruning shears, but 75 bucks is a lot of money to me. Isn't there something better than the Chinese ones that is maybe somewhere in the middle. Surely there are American companies that make pruners?
In my 65 years I have learned that for most things you're better off paying the money for quality because replacing things costs more in the long run. My number is 223.
I"m always amazed by globalization. These pruners were made by someone in China, at least to assemble it, then went on a boat to cross half the world, then arrived in a US shop where someone bought it for only 7$ (were is the salary for all the workers involved ?), then it broke immediately and ended up in a trash can, then probably in an incinerator, at best. It's a total waste of ressources. These 7$ pruners were in fact very expensive. And useless...
I'm just a property manager and not a professional landscaper. If you want to hate your job, buy cheap tools. Yeah, it hurt me a bit to buy my Felco pruner but now I don't regret it. Pruning is now actually enjoyable and with little or no joint pain after... I'm 70 years of age already.
Buy an Okatsune at 1/3 the price with an old-fashioned design and the blade would stay sharper longer than any Felco. Even without the mechanical advantage of this new Felco handle, the cut is sharper, and not that much more strength is required.
I have had my Felco 2 pruners for a couple of years now and really happy with them. But since breaking a small bone and tearing a tendon in my hand and im not getting any younger either lol I think ill upgrade in a year or two to those swivel handled ones as my trees will be getting a little thicker by then. Thank you for the demo.

I've always had great results with Fiskars. I have some loppers that are 25-30 years old that still amaze me.
They used to be made in England, I think.
sure does. It has much better mechanical advantage. The Cheap one is probably no worse than the Felco 2.
@@marylegan2046 Fiskars is very old Finnish company. Eshtablised something like around year 1650.

If you have small hands, try the Felco #13. They have longer handles so the leverage helps when you don’t have a lot of hand strength. Felcos are Quality.
I stopped buying all Chinese made tools a long time ago, it's just cheaper in the long run to buy once and buy the best you can afford.
I completely agree my friend
I love the Felco pruners. Fiskers are good but felcos are the very best in my experience. Nothing else compares in my experience.
Hay thank you for the info. A old wise woman once told me sometimes gardening not easy some of the time. I loved her to death it was my grandmother.
If the branch is a bit thicker don't just squeese harder but also move the tool up and down so it can cut easier.
When you are using a knife to cut something you make a back and forth motion, instead of only putting pressure on it without any motion.
I like that you can resharpen the Felco blades! I have only ever used the cheaper pruners, but would love to try one of these

Yeah there may not be a lot of people entering, we will see
Simply Jan Homestead
It’s not that it’s a better pruner, it’s better for dead branches vs fresh
75 dollars pruner I will never be able to purchase that. Too expensive. Maybe I’m just poor.

thanks for great video God Bless
Glad you enjoyed it my friend. God Bless you also!! 🙏❤️
With the thick branch you can see, that the pass-by-pruner works absolutly the same as an amboss-pruner. the second edge adds nothingto the cutting.

Yup, and after using them for a whole day I think the ease of use will make a huge difference
that would work good for me because i have rhematoid arthritis in both hands .
