Care Instructions
-Do not cut hard objects such as wire and dried flowers with these scissors. These floral scissors and secateurs are specifically designed to cut raw branches and stems and the blades are finely adjusted for this purpose.
-Do not sharpen the back of the blades if you are not familiar with Japanese shears (concave).
– To maintain the sharpness and if you are not using them for a while, say 6 months, we recommend you apply a drop of Japanese camellia seed oil around the rivet. Open and close a few times and wipe off any excess oil.

“I received a gift of a pair of walnut handle inlay secateurs and recommend them to all my friends. After years of regularly replacing jammed or blunt secateurs, these are amazing – sharp and ergonomic, they make pruning a treat instead of a RSI-inducing chore.”
