Pruning shears Fiskars 1001555 Bypass, 545 mm length, 5 cm cutting capacity, black/orange handles

Fiskars 1001555 bypass pruning shears are designed for precise cuts on living wood. With a total length of 545 mm and a cutting capacity up to 5 cm, these shears combine reach and control for routine garden pruning and light maintenance tasks. The bypass cutting system ensures clean, scissor-like cuts that help preserve plant health, while black-coated blades resist corrosion and reduce sap adhesion. Black and orange ergonomic handles provide grip and comfort during repeated use.

Advantages

The bypass mechanism enables accurate, clean cuts that minimize damage to stems and branches. A 545 mm length increases reach and leverage for cutting thicker stems with less effort. Black-coated blades offer improved corrosion resistance and easier cleaning after contact with sap. Ergonomically shaped handles reduce hand fatigue and improve handling for extended gardening sessions.

Suitable for

• Pruning living wood and removing small branches
• Trimming shrubs and shaping bushes
• General light garden maintenance and plant care

Key specifications

• Cutting system: bypass (scissor-style) suitable for living wood
• Total length: 545 mm for extended reach
• Maximum cutting capacity: up to 5 cm diameter
• Blade finish: black coating for corrosion resistance
• Handle design: ergonomic black and orange handles for comfort and grip

How to use

Position the bypass blades around the branch so the sharp edge makes contact on the clean side of the cut and the blunt edge supports from the back. Apply steady pressure to close the blades in a single smooth motion for a clean cut. For branches near the maximum cutting capacity, use the tool at a slight angle and ensure the branch is supported to avoid splitting. After use, wipe blades clean of sap and debris and store the shears in a dry place to maintain blade condition.

Usage recommendations

Use these pruning shears on live, green wood and avoid cutting deadwood or very hard, woody material beyond the specified capacity. Regularly clean and dry the blades after use and sharpen as needed to preserve cutting performance and extend the lifespan of the tool.
