Secateurs & Cutting Tools

The Sentei is suitable for light pruning and occasional use. The Higurashi is perfect for daily use in the garden. The Pro Secateur, hand-forged, is designed for more intensive pruning and tough branches. For cutting flowers and precision work, a slim secateur (with red handles or rattan-wrapped grips) is more suitable.

After each use, a pass with a rust eraser and a few drops of camellia oil are enough to protect the blade. Regular sharpening with a medium-grit stone maintains a clean cut over time.

The pruning shears are suitable for thicker branches and regular pruning. The scissors, being lighter and more precise, are better suited for cutting flowers, finishing touches, and delicate trimming.
