Review: Absolutely Perfect Pruners! A Must-Have for Gardeners - ​I am so thrilled with this pair of handheld shears! They are an absolutely perfect addition to my gardening toolkit. ​What immediately impressed me was how comfortable they are to use. I have smaller hands and often struggle with tools feeling bulky, but these fit perfectly and are easy to maneuver. If you have small hands, don't hesitate—these are ideal! ​Beyond the comfort, the sharpness is incredible. They make quick work of pruning and deadheading, giving a clean cut every single time. Even the tips are incredibly sharp, which makes precision work, like getting into tight spots or snipping delicate flower heads, surprisingly easy. ​These shears feel durable and have truly elevated my gardening game. Highly, highly recommend! ​
Review: the best small snips I’ve used - Darlac Compact Snips – Award Winning, Razor are easily the best small snips I’ve used. They’re incredibly sharp and feel solid in the hand, not flimsy like the cheaper ones that dull quickly or fall apart after a season. I use them mainly for willow work and they cut cleanly through surprisingly thick material with very little effort. You can tell straight away they’re made properly – good steel, good action, and no wobble in the blades. The only downside (and this is more of a “me” problem) is that I always seem to trap the palm of my hand in snips, including these – but that’s probably down to my baggy hands rather than the tool itself. Overall, a proper, well-made pair of snips that feel like they’ll last for years. Well worth paying a bit more for compared to budget alternatives.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the blade length on these?**
A: The blade length is 60mm (6cms).

**Q: Are these suitable for orchids?**
A: These snips have proved to be suitable for all light cutting and plant trimming work. The blades are of high quality steel and stay sharp with a minimum of care. I would expect these snips to be quite suitable for orchids.

**Q: Country of manufacture?**
A: The Darlac literature says  'The company has been based in the Slough area since its inception and in August 2017 was purchased by Mr Fothergill’s Seeds - another great British, family owned gardening company. '
On the product it says the blades are made of Japanese steel.  
Sorry - as I no longer have the original packaging, that is as helpful as I can be!

**Q: Are these suitable for dead heading roses?**
A: Very much so I am a professional gardener and use them for this purpose in fact I have 2 pairs. They are not heavy duty Iwould say they will happily cut up to 3/8 inch thick but ideal for rose or flower dead heading. Hope this helps
