On a similar theme to Chris Hoggs' lopper thread, I'm looking for good
quality secateurs please. Chris prefers anvil but I'm looking for
bypass. 2 gardens and an allotment means they get a lot of heavy use.
First the adjustment goes, followed by the spring ...... :-)


My Felco #7's with the rotating handle make light work of anything up to
an inch across, now 35 years old, kept sharp they are a good bit of kit,
mine live in a holster at my side and get used for everything including
plumbing and electrics!
