If you prune for a living, they are the best!
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.
One of the best pruners made. Durable, easy to use, well made, i have had the same pruner for fifteen years.
Good, no nonsense, incredibly reliable pruner. I buy these for our staff because everything is replaceable on them, they are very durable, and they are timeless. I have, for these reasons, not come up with any reason to change or try anything else!
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.
