Specifications

Which Model Should I Choose?

Choose the T-550 for longer blades and spring-assisted opening. Choose the T-550S for the same published dimensions with stainless-steel blades.

Care

Clean and dry after use. Carbon steel can rust if left damp; apply a light protective oil before storage. Use heavier pruners for woody stems.
