This is for the gardener looking for perfection. These shears make prune almost fun. Slicing through new growth, soft foliage or wet material is one of the most demanding tasks for a cutting tool. It is in effect a specialist job. It’s no good expecting secateurs to do it – they were designed specifically to cut through woody material and will just chew up anything soft, leaving ragged, unsightly AND unhealthy edges.

These shears, with their razor sharp blades will slice through soft stuff like butter and what’s more, they’ll keep doing it long after other similar tools have blunted.

This design of shear (developed from sheep shears) is particularly good for Topiary because:the grip position places the hands right over the blades giving maximum possible cutting control – essential for precious topiary shapes.and the single handed operation leaves one hand free to ‘fluff up’ the foliage
Burgon & Ball Topiary & Garden Shears are also ideal for lawn edging, dead heading, opening compost sacks, cutting wet pond weed and dozens of other trimming jobs around the garden.

Burgon & Ball shears out perform any others of similar design by miles – here’s how and why - insert anatomy of a shear!!
