SAKURA Professional Pruning Secateurs Large Model Total Length & Blade 225mm / 75mm Japanese Cutlery Steel [Traditional Hand Forged from Scratch / Hollow Ground Back / Twisted Blade / Screw Joint / Smooth Curved Ergonomic Handle]

Description

Crafted under the prestigious SAKURA brand by Hasamiya Ichiban, these large-format 225mm A-Type professional pruning secateurs (Model 499) combine traditional Japanese blacksmithing with high-capacity cutting performance. Expertly forged from premium Japanese cutlery steel, this model is built for arborists, landscapers, and professional gardeners who require maximum leverage, extended reach, and smooth shearing action.

Featuring a generous 75mm blade measured from the bolt center, this large model effortlessly captures, holds, and slices through thicker limbs and dense growth that smaller shears struggle to handle. Its refined, thin A-type blade profile reduces cutting resistance, while the precision-tuned Urasuki (hollow ground back) and hand-adjusted Hinari (blade twist angle) ensure a perfectly smooth, friction-free blade crossover. Paired with smoothly contoured handles designed to fit comfortably in larger hands, these secateurs provide high cutting power with minimal palm fatigue. Complete with a traditional handle-latch lock (Kanadome) and a robust bolt assembly for long-term adjustability.
