The Fiskars Micro-Tip pruners are great for precision trimming jobs on small plants, flowers, and even vegetable gardens where a larger pruner would be unwieldy. The non-slip handles, blade cover, and blade lock also keep the sharp parts away from your soft parts. Looking at the 1-1/2″ blade, I can also imagine a host of uses in the shop where larger snips or cutters would be too big or clumsy for intricate cutting or trimming work – feel free to share your ideas in comments!
Street pricing runs about $10 from your local Home Depot.

I’ve had several pairs of these as backup to my (expensive)
Japanese made bonsai scissors.
They’re a great value for the price, and I can leave them out
in the yard without a second thought.
They stay quite sharp, do dull a bit over time (but not bad
at all).
I’d buy a pair again if, say, the raccoons in the yard
absconded with the current pair…..
I have 2 pairs. One pair I purchased from Homie’s and another pair I I found. It looks like over the years they changed the mechanism to close the snips. On the pair I purchased about 3 years ago there was a a rubber sleeve that was used to keep the sheers closed for storage. Not a good idea if you loose the cover. With the newer model they incorporated a latch for this purpose.
I think they are great for deadheading herbaceous plants and maybe even some small diameter woody plants.
Gave my mom a pair of those. Within a year, one of the blades snapped at the pivot.
