How to use it

Leaf scissors are for thinning leaves and needles and for leaf cutting, where the leaf is removed but the stalk is left in place. The small, pointed blades get between the leaves without hitting the buds. Don't cut branches with them - it dulls the blades.

Good to know

  • This tool is made of ordinary steel. Wipe it after use and give it a drop of oil - Ballistol or camellia oil, for example - so it doesn't rust.
  • The Starter range is good-value tools to get you going. For sharper blades and a longer life, take a look at Ryuga and Japanese premium.
