Pruning shears NEO tools 15-204 — single-piece hand secateur for cutting branches

NEO tools 15-204 is a single-piece manual hand secateur designed for routine garden pruning and trimming. With a total length of 200 mm and a by-pass blade system, these pruning shears are intended for cutting fresh wood and soft stems up to a maximum diameter of 18 mm. The tool combines a hardened steel non-stick coated blade, a transmission mechanism to reduce cutting effort, and an ergonomic handle with soft TPR elements, delivered as one unit for general-purpose garden maintenance and hobby gardening.

Advantages

The by-pass blade design provides sharp, smooth cuts by allowing the blades to pass closely past each other, which helps preserve plant health when pruning live shoots. A built-in transmission reduces the manual force required for each cut, improving efficiency during repetitive tasks. The hardened steel blade features a PTFE non-stick coating to resist sap and residue buildup, and the ergonomic handle with soft rubber TPR inserts improves grip and comfort. A one-touch safety lock secures the tool when not in use.

• Cutting fresh branches and stems up to 18 mm in diameter

How to use

Hold the secateur comfortably with the ergonomic handle so the cutting blades align with the branch. Position the by-pass blades around the fresh shoot to produce a clean, angled cut near the bud or node. Squeeze the handles evenly until the blades pass and complete the cut. Use the transmission assistance to reduce required hand force on thicker stems close to the 18 mm limit. Engage the one-touch safety lock when storing or transporting the tool.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use these pruning shears on live, fresh wood and avoid cutting materials above the specified 18 mm diameter. Clean the blade after use to remove sap and debris; the PTFE coating reduces sticking but regular wiping with a dry cloth and occasional light oiling of the pivot will prolong blade life. Store the secateur in a dry place with the safety lock engaged. Replace or sharpen the blade when cuts become less smooth to maintain plant health.
