Product Features
Locking mechanism on pivot bolt assembly keeps it precise over time. The sap groove consists of a raised edge on the hook blade which allows the run off of sap, keeping the shear cutting smoothly. Replacement parts on this pruner make it a lifetime tool.
FAQ
QUESTION: Can the shear be sent in for repair?
ANSWER: Felco does have a repair facility which is mostly used for their more expensive power products. The standard hand pruners could be sent in for repair but by the time shipping, parts, and labor are added it is usually not cost effective. We sell replacement parts which are easy to replace.

Felco 2 versus ARS VS8Z
Kevin H. from FL wrote (March 15, 2011):
Felco 2 is the standard. We have recently tried the ARS VS8Z. We find that the ARS unit requires less effort to cut exactly the same size of material. The Felco 2 however is far easier to adjust and repair that the ARS.

I began using Felco pruners as a co-op at Walt Disney World. Almost 20 years later I still use Felco pruners because they are truly the best.
