Amazon.com Product Description
The Felco ergonomic hand pruner sports a strong anvil blade and is an ideal choice for light day-to-day pruning. Users will benefit from the pruner's lightweight construction and handle design that resists slipping. Easy to use, the pruner tackles tasks such as cutting back an overgrown hydrangea or removing a sickly pansy patch with minimal stress on user hands and wrists. The pruner's anvil blades are crafted with hardened Swiss carbon steel blades that offer frictionless slicing and resist rust. With a fine blade adjustment and a wire cutting notch, the blades easily cut through branches, stems, and wires up to 1-inch in diameter. The light metal handles are forged for durability and pivot on tough, replaceable pins rather standard rivets. A cushioned stop keeps the blades from opening unexpectedly or overly wide. The pruner measures 8-1/2 inches long and weighs only 8.7-ounces, and comes with a limited lifetime warranty.

 Products is excellent; condition received was poor December 27, 2008

Felco pruner is great however, the packaging was ripped open and the return shipping address had been removed. Since the UPS packaging was in tact, I can only assume that this occurred at the warehouse. It look like it was a returned item that was unloaded on me.
I made my brother VERY happy! December 14, 2008

My brother works for a Christms Tree farm & has used Felco hand pruners for years. Last August he lost everything--including his tools in a fire. He could not find a place locally that carried Felco tools. I told him I would look for it on Amazon & sure enough I found it! It arrived just in time for his busy season. He hasn't stopped thanking me! He said he could not imagine getting through the season without them.
Pruners that are almost fun to use! September 3, 2008

Once upon a time I had a classic #2 Felco that I scored for free due to it needing a new blade and spring. Less than $15 gave me the industry standard for high quality pruners. That pair mysteriously disappeared about 4 years ago. They were terrific! Since then I've accumulated a few more pruners from Corona, Fiskars, and A.M. Leonard. The A.M. Leonard ones are similar to the #2 Felcos but made in Italy. Recently I was given a "bonus" from my boss to buy a set of Felco pruners, so I picked up a #8 and it is great! I do a lot of pruning on the job, and the ergonomic shape blows the AM Leo and #2 Felcos out of the water. Much more comfortable to hold and use - more or less like an extension of your arm, or that your hand was meant to hold them. Felco fit and finish is impeccable, and the best part is that parts are readily available for this potentially lifelong tool, more so than any other brand out there of which I am aware. The steel is also excellent on the blades. Take proper care of this tool and it will last and last.
felco 8's should last forever August 2, 2008
linda (Detters Mill, Pa United States)
well, they should last forever and our first pair would have if I hadn't accidentally left them in the lawn in the path of an oncoming mower. So this is our second pair. Hopefully these will make the forever mark.
Easy to maintain, great grip and size.
 Rather disappointing June 20, 2008

As Felco as such an excellent reputation, I expected higher quality. The blades became dull almost immediately though the pruners were only used for "light duty". Within a couple of months the blades were rusty AND dull, so when the spring popped out and disappeared into the garden I said, "to heck with it!" and went to Wal Mart where I spent less than $10 for a pair that are serving me nicely their second year. I dunno--others LOVE their Felcos. Go figure.
