Anvil pruning shears, or anvil secateurs, are a type of gardening tool used for cutting thicker, tougher stems and branches. They have a single sharp blade that closes onto a flat, often slightly curved anvil surface. This design provides powerful cutting force, making them suitable for heavier pruning jobs.
Key Uses for Anvil Pruning Shears:
1. Pruning Dead or Hard Wood:
Ideal for cutting through dead or dry wood, as they provide a stronger, crushing action that can handle brittle material.
2. Removing Thick Branches:
Great for cutting thicker branches (up to about 1 inch in diameter, depending on the tool), which would be difficult with bypass pruners or snips.
3. Trimming Back Overgrown Shrubs and Bushes:
Useful for reducing the size of overgrown shrubs, especially when you need to make quick, powerful cuts.
How They Work:
The anvil design works by compressing the branch against the flat anvil surface, slicing it as the sharp blade presses down. This results in a clean cut through tough material, though it can sometimes crush softer, green stems.
Key Features Stiga Anvil Pruning Shears Secateurs:
Strong Cutting Action: The anvil design allows greater force with less hand strain, ideal for cutting hard, woody stems.
Durable Blade: Anvil pruners are usually made with strong, sharp blades that maintain their edge well.
Ergonomic Handles: Often feature ergonomic grips to reduce hand fatigue during heavy-duty pruning.
Considerations:
Anvil pruners are best used on dead wood or hard, thick branches. For softer, green stems, bypass pruners are typically preferred, as anvil shears can sometimes crush living tissue rather than making a clean cut.
