Pruning Grafting Knife BRADAS GR5039 — folding grafting knife for bud grafting and pruning

The BRADAS GR5039 pruning grafting knife is a folding grafting and pruning tool developed for horticulture and arboriculture tasks. It combines a stainless steel folding blade with a compact handle that supports one-handed operation for bud grafting, cutting scions and light pruning. The folding mechanism secures the blade for safe transport and storage, while the blade profile and sharp edge are designed to produce precise cuts needed for successful grafting and clean pruning wounds.

Advantages

This folding grafting knife offers corrosion-resistant stainless steel cutting performance and a compact ergonomic handle that fits easily in the hand for controlled work. The blade folds into the handle for safe carrying and reduces the risk of accidental injury. Its balanced size and cutting geometry make it suitable for accurate budding and trimming of small stems, allowing cleaner cuts that support faster tissue healing.

How to use

Open the knife until the blade locks into the working position and ensure the edge is clean and sharp before use.
