Pruning shears NEO tools 15-211 — hand secateurs, weight 178 g, single piece

NEO tools 15-211 pruning shears are an anvil-style hand secateur designed for precise pruning and cutting in gardens and small-scale horticulture. The tool measures 210 mm in total length and weighs 178 g, providing a compact and lightweight option for trimming branches, shrubs and woody stems. Constructed with durable steel blades featuring a non-stick coating, these shears handle hard or dry wood and offer a nominal maximum cutting diameter of up to 20 mm. The polypropylene handle with soft TPR rubber coating improves grip and control, and a locking mechanism increases safety during storage and transport.

Advantages

The anvil construction gives consistent cutting performance on thicker or drier material while the non-stick blade coating reduces sap and debris buildup for easier maintenance. An ergonomic polypropylene handle with TPR rubber sections provides comfortable handling and slip resistance during repetitive use. The locking feature secures the blades when not in use, and the relatively low weight of 178 g reduces fatigue during extended pruning tasks.

Suitable for

• Pruning small branches and stems in home gardens and allotments
• Trimming shrubs and woody perennials
• Light professional landscaping and maintenance tasks
• Horticultural work where a compact hand secateur is required

Key specifications

• Total length: 210 mm
• Weight: 178 g
• Cutting mechanism: anvil (single cutting blade against anvil)
• Maximum cutting diameter: up to 20 mm
• Blade material: durable steel with non-stick coating
• Handle material: polypropylene with TPR rubber coating
• Locking mechanism: manual blade lock for safe storage

How to use

Hold the secateurs with the handle in your dominant hand and position the branch or stem between the cutting blade and anvil. Apply steady pressure to close the blade until the stem is cleanly cut, avoiding twisting or sawing motions that can damage the blade or plant. For best results on thicker wood close to the maximum cutting diameter, use controlled single cuts rather than forcing the tool. Engage the locking mechanism when the secateurs are not in use to prevent accidental opening and store the tool in a dry place to protect the blades and handle materials.

Usage recommendations

Regularly clean the blade after use to remove sap and debris and apply a light oil film to prevent corrosion. Sharpen the cutting edge as needed to maintain efficient performance, and inspect the handle and locking mechanism for wear before use. Use the shears within their maximum cutting diameter to avoid damage and choose an anvil-style secateur for woody or dry material where crushing action is acceptable.
