ARS 300L Long-Reach Fruit Thinning & Fine Harvest Snips 190mm/46mm Weight: 115g | High Carbon Steel [ARS Sakai Cutlery / Signature Red Grip / Featherweight 115g / Extended 46mm Pointed Tip / High-Precision Bolt Joint]

Description

Manufactured in Sakai, Osaka—Japan’s historic cutlery capital—by ARS Corporation (established in 1876), the ARS 300L Long-Reach Fruit Thinning & Fine Harvest Snips 190mm extends the reach of the classic 300-series with a longer blade profile designed for deep penetration into dense plant canopies and thick fruit clusters. Featuring ARS’s signature red handles, this shear offers unmatched maneuverability for professional growers and gardeners worldwide.

Weighing a featherweight 115g, the 300L is engineered to eliminate hand, finger, and wrist fatigue during long hours of continuous orchard and greenhouse work. Its balanced 190mm overall length provides natural leverage and comfortable control for rapid, high-volume snipping.

Forged from ARS’s proprietary high-carbon cutlery steel and hardened using advanced heat-treatment technology, the 300L features an extended 46mm slender pointed blade. This longer tip profile allows you to reach deep inside crowded foliage and dense fruit clusters—such as grapes, apples, pears, and tomatoes—snipping targeted stems cleanly without nicking nearby produce. Fitted with ARS’s high-precision bolt-and-nut joint to maintain optimal blade tension over long-term use, the 300L delivers outstanding professional utility for daily harvesting, fruit thinning (Tekka), and delicate canopy care.
