Perfectly balanced for ease of use and accuracy, these poles are light and maneuverable and provide sharp and accurate precision pruning at heights that would otherwise require a ladder. Each unit has 3 ways to cut! Leave the grabbers on the blade for cut and hold action, where the material is grabbed after cutting for easy retrieval or removal. Simply remove the grabbers from the blade for maximum cutting and general pruning. If you encounter a larger limb that needs pruning - no worries! Use the saw attachment for quick and easy removal. Note: the saw blade can be attached to the pruner while using the pruning blades to have the saw option available at all times.
