Default for really serious pruning :)

I was unsure how to title this post. Gift for the gardener who has
everything? What you need for your whopping huge orchard? Sammy Four
Finger's favorite tool? The gift that keeps on taking?

Anyway these are pretty ridiculous secateurs:

I think they must be expensive. I saw a used pair for 750 EU, which
prompted me to do a search!

I skipped through the video after the fabulous intro, but the citrus
pruning at around 5m is pretty impressive. And I loved the tying-in
machine at the end.

Who knew?

I noticed the battery packs that the operators wear.
Very, very expensive. Lots of power though.
It would make your back very hot as that power is used wearing those packs
of batteries, and they are very heavy to port.
It never says AH, probably in 2004 was 3ah or less.
Well one battery would serve the Arthur(Broadback) for the amateur pruner
come gardener.
