With so many secateurs available today, why choose Felco?

Felco has been manufactured since 1945 and designed with Swiss precision and attention to detail.

Felco was voted 'best tool of it's kind' by the Good Design Guide, and featured in the top 100 best ever products.

Felco is recognised as the finest in the world by horticulturalists, professional growers and discerning gardeners in more than 80 countries.

Every Felco secateur is subjected to more than 100 quality control processes before leaving the manufacturing plant (no pun intended!).

Forged aluminium alloy gives the handles resistance and thus makes the tools last longer. The forged aluminium is also environmentally friendly as it can be recycled in full.

 

FELCO's state of the art pruning shears all have a manually adjustable centre nut for aligning the play between the cutting blade and the anvil blade, guaranteeing a clean and precise cut.

 

The top quality steel in the cutting and anvil blades, plus heat treatment, ensure perfect resistance and excellent cutting performance.

 

The blades of most pruning shears are equipped with a notch for cutting small diameter wires.

 

 

Most pruning shears come with a sap groove to wipe away dirt after each cut.

 

 

The angled cutting head on some pruning shears extends the access of the forearm, thus increasing user comfort.

 

The revolving handle fitted to certain pruning shears spreads the muscular effort over all 5 fingers and reduces the effort of cutting by 30%, thus preventing risks of tendonitis and inflammation.

 

FELCO has chosen a spare parts system in order to guarantee consistently high quality and longer life for its tools. The user does not have to buy new pruning shears or cutters when a part becomes worn, breaks or is lost.

 

FELCO tools are ergonomically adapted to the individual user. Some models are designed especially for left-handers or people with small hands. 

 

The cushion and shock-absorber on pruning shears reduce the impact at the end of cutting, thus protecting hand and wrist.
