Spear & Jackson 6758GS Razorsharp Geared Anvil Secateurs

A really solid, dependable pair of secateurs that feel well made from the moment you pick them up. They sit comfortably in the hand and are nicely balanced, making regular pruning and tidying up around the garden straightforward and precise. The geared mechanism provides a noticeable boost in cutting power, meaning you can tackle thicker stems and branches with less effort. They lock easily for safe storage, and the action feels smooth and consistent. I do find that thicker gardening gloves can make operating these a little fiddly, but that’s a minor issue and to be expected with most designs. On very dense or woody stems they can begin to struggle slightly, though that’s more a case of using them beyond their intended range than any shortcoming in the tool itself. They’ve held up really well so far, keeping a sharp edge and showing no signs of wear despite regular use. A great, well-priced pair of secateurs that combine comfort, control and durability - ideal for general garden maintenance.

Great product. Sturdy easy to use and sharp. Great for people who have difficulty gripping as you can put your fingers through the handle underneath for better grip

This item was exactly as described .Very good quality and very sharp .

Fab. As expected. Very sharp and easy to use

This is my review of the Spear & Jackson 6758GS Razorsharp Geared Anvil Secateurs. I went for anvil secateurs as I believe only having one blade(cutting down onto a non-cutting, "anvil," surface) means that when cutting you are only trying to force one blade through the branch so these anvil secateurs are more general purpose than the bypass secateurs.(With two cutting blades that bypass each other in use like the blades on scissors) I also think that these anvil secateurs are better with tough, more woody shrubs. There is some gearing with these secateurs that helps and I was surprised how easily I was able to cut through established growth 1cm diameter without having to use loppers. These secateurs come in at 244g on my scales and feel light enough for prolonged use. The scissor handle is large enough to get your gloved hand through and the spring return is just strong enough to keep the secateurs in your hand whilst you are using them. These secateurs are not perfect however as the main problem with the anvil secateurs is that they do not leave as clean a cut as with the bypass secateurs and they do not work so well on really thin clippings. For some jobs you might be better off with a bypass secateur. These were not expensive for what you get so I am happy to recommend these as they are a good set of anvil secateurs but bear in-mind that for some jobs you may be better with bypass secateurs instead.

Works great

Wish I'd gotten bypass as opposed to anvil, as these tend not to cut cleanly sometimes

These are good for secateurs, not the sharpest but does the job

No me convencieron y terminé devolviéndolas. No abre lo suficiente si necesitas cortar ramas gruesas. El sistema de yunque era la primera vez que lo probaba y me resultó poco efectivo. Las tijeras con dobles hojas afiladas trabajan mejor.

Sehr hochwertig verarbeitet Super in der Handhabung Empfehlenswert ohne Einschränkungen 👍👍

La sensazione in mano è quella di solidità, l'ho provata su dei piccoli rametti e taglia bene.

1) Testé sur un rond de bois DN15, le mécanisme de crémaillère ne s'enclenche pas. 2) Ne convient pas pour de petites mains

I was impressed with the quality! They come very sharp and they stay very sharp after years of use!
