Caring for your pruning tools

Use properly

Use pruning tools only for jobs that they have been designed for. Don't risk straining the blades and your muscles by using them on material which is too thick.


Maintain your pruning tools to save effort and money


Clean sap off blades as you go, and sharpen blades with a special steel or a whetstone. Spare parts such as replacement blades and spare springs are often supplied at the time of purchasing top quality makes and models, or can be bought as needed. Search our online garden centre for the spring or blade you need.
