Tobisho Professional Pruning Secateurs Total Length & Blade: 200mm/67mm High-Grade Japanese Carbon Cutlery Steel [TraditionalHand Forged from Scratch /Hollow Ground Back / Twisted Blade / Screw Joint / Leather Strap Lock]

Description
Handcrafted in Yamagata Prefecture by Tobisho (Tobizuka Shears Works)—one of Japan's most respected traditional blacksmiths—the A2-Type 200mm (Model 366) is a flagship standard bypass secateur designed for daily professional use. Masterfully hand-forged from high-grade Japanese carbon cutlery steel, this model utilizes full-steel construction to deliver impressive structural toughness, excellent edge retention, and dependable cutting torque.

Featuring a versatile 200mm overall length and a 67mm blade measured from the bolt center, Model 366 offers optimal balance and leverage for general orchard, vineyard, and landscape pruning. The primary cutting blade is precision-ground with Tobisho's signature 3D curved Urasuki (hollow ground back) and tuned crossover alignment (Hinari). This reduces steel-to-steel contact surface friction, prevents sap accumulation, and ensures a crisp, clean bite through live wood without crushing plant tissue. Finished with a classic leather bottom handle strap lock (Kawa-dome), this tool is a reliable workhorse built for years of heavy service.
