From garden tool specialists ARS, these multi purpose shears are ideal for a range of tasks around the garden, from trimming thick hedges, to edging lawns, to fine topiary work. The shears' corrosion resistant, chrome plated carbon steel blades are 2mm wider than those found on the previous model, for enhanced strength & endurance. Of considerable advantage are the shears' handles, constructed from an ultra low density composite material to keep them lightweight & easy to control. This combination of reduced overall weight & tough blade design makes for comfortable, fatigue free cutting, without any sacrifice to the longevity of the tool. Comfort is also improved by advanced design ergonomics, & enlarged shock absorbers to prevent strain, even with prolonged use.
