FELCO 6 One-Hand Pruning Shear - High Performance Ergonomic Compact
The FELCO 6 is the definitive choice for those who require the power of a professional tool in a more maneuverable, compact frame. Specifically engineered for users with medium-sized hands, this model offers exceptional ergonomics without compromising on cutting capacity. It combines the legendary Swiss durability of the FELCO 2 with a shorter cutting head and lighter handles, resulting in a tool that feels like a natural extension of the hand.
Best For Gardeners with medium hand sizes, florists, and nursery workers who need a lightweight, high-precision tool for intensive, all-day pruning.
Key Features
-
Compact Ergonomic Design: Featuring shorter handles and a tapered cutting head, this model is perfectly balanced to reduce hand strain and reach into tight clusters of branches.
-
Premium Hardened Steel Blades: The bypass blades are crafted from high-quality hardened steel, ensuring surgical precision and a smooth finish that promotes rapid plant recovery.
-
Lightweight Forged Aluminum: Built with FELCO’s signature drop-forged aluminum handles, providing maximum strength-to-weight ratio and a lifetime of reliability.
-
Integrated Sap Groove & Wire Notch: Includes a built-in groove to prevent blade sticking from debris and a specialized notch for safely cutting small garden wires without dulling the edge.
-
Cushioned Shock Absorbers: Equipped with rubber shock absorbers that soften the impact at the end of each cut, significantly protecting the wrist and hand during repetitive tasks.

This item is sold as a single FELCO 6 (Medium/Compact) pruning shear unit.
