Description

Manufactured in Onomichi, Hiroshima Prefecture by Okatsune—Japan’s most trusted and widely used agricultural cutlery brand—the Okatsune No.304 Ultra-Lightweight Harvest & Bud Snips 190mm is an indispensable, high-efficiency practical tool engineered for rapid fruit harvesting, flower deadheading, and light garden maintenance.

Weighing an astonishingly light 110g, this snip is built for speed and effortless operation. Its featherweight frame eliminates palm, finger, and wrist fatigue, making it the ultimate workhorse for professional fruit growers, florists, and home gardeners managing hours of repetitive harvesting and soft-stem trimming.

Forged from Okatsune’s signature hard-tempered high-carbon cutlery steel, the razor-sharp 45mm compact blade delivers a crisp, effortless slicing action right out of the box. Its short, agile tip profile glides easily into dense foliage, tight vine clusters, and crowded fruit stems (such as grapes, tomatoes, and citrus) for precise cuts without damaging adjacent produce. Simple, durable, and highly effective, the No.304 represents the absolute standard in Japanese practical garden tools.
