Burgon & Ball - RHS Telescopic Wavy Edged Hedge Shear – Extended Reach Compound Action Shears

Burgon & Ball RHS Telescopic Wavy Edged Hedge Shear – Extended Reach Compound Action Shears

The Burgon & Ball RHS Telescopic Wavy Edged Hedge Shear is a versatile, high-reach tool designed for gardeners who need both power and precision at a distance. Endorsed by the Royal Horticultural Society, these shears feature a unique compound action that delivers 60% more cutting power than standard models. The specialized wavy-edged blades are engineered to "trap" stems and foliage, preventing them from sliding down the blade when the tool is fully extended, ensuring a clean and efficient cut every time.

Best For: Maintenance of tall or wide hedges where extra reach is required, and for trimming "slippery" foliage like grasses or conifers that tend to slide out of straight blades.

Key Features

• 60% More Cutting Power: The unique compound lever action significantly increases leverage, allowing you to slice through thick, woody stems with minimal physical effort.
• Wavy-Edged Blades: Specialized wavy blades are designed to grip and trap foliage during the cutting stroke, which is especially useful when working at full extension where control is most difficult.
• Telescopic Reach: Features an easy-to-use mechanism that extends the overall length from 65.5cm to 85cm, providing the reach needed for tall hedges or deep garden borders.
• Ultra-Lightweight Aluminium Shafts: Constructed for ergonomic overhead work, the lightweight shafts reduce arm and shoulder strain during long trimming sessions.
• RHS Endorsed: This tool meets the exacting quality standards of the Royal Horticultural Society, ensuring professional-grade performance and durability.

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.

Lead Times:

• In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
• Supplier-Dependent Items: Can take up to 2 weeks to arrive.

While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.
