“My neighbour, who is a professional horticulturalist, told me that Felco Model 2 Secateurs are the best and that he has used the same pair since he was at college, and that's quite a long time ago. Anyway I bought a pair lst week and imediately I can tell the difference between these and all the ones I have ever bought, and at 73, that's quite a few. These are the first ones ever where I can hear the blades move against each, just touching in perfect alignment throughout the cut. Not only that the price was good and the delivery fast, so don't waste money on anything else, but a pair of these.”
“After 18 years with my old pair of Felco 2s (numerous sharpening sand one factory recondition) I felt as a professional gardener it was time for a new pair. They kept self closing and no one could undo the burred closure catch. All oiled up and ready to go I knew they would be a little stiff and so I am disappointed at how stiff they are. If I pour gallons of oil into them they are fine but as I'm up a ladder constantly at the moment pruning wisteria it is a little trying having to constantly climb down to tinker with them. I will take them apart when I finish work on Friday and see if that helps. Beautifully sharp and very shiny I should feel over the moon but I don't quite.”
