About Pruners Hisui

The development came about when a peach orchard farmer told Tobisho that he wanted a hand pruner that could cut thin and hard branches smoothly.

The Hiisui also incorporates the innovations used in the Hiryu, which is Tobisho's most highly functional model. Its greatest feature is the lack of resistance when cutting. The thinness of the blade, the mirror-finished blade, the grease pool that maintains smooth movement, and the low friction and resistance due to the fact that the blades cut without contact. The design of each part is based on ergonomics, resulting in a very well-balanced product.

One person who used it said, ``It's like cutting butter.'' It's close to your hand and you can prun it with just the feeling of pinching it with your fingers, making it very light and easy to work with. Although the hand pruners are small, they are suitable for people of all sizes. In situations where you don't need a pruning saw, you can do most of the work with just this one pruners.

The motif was a pair of pruning shears called the "pistol type" developed in the Akita area of Japan. Hisui and Hirei are based on this shape and incorporate Tobisho's experience.

The difference in pruning may be small for a single pruning operation, but if you prun for a long time, the difference in fatigue becomes obvious. These pruning shears are especially recommended for professionals who are concerned about tendonitis.
