The Okatsune 216 short garden shears are suitable for shaping trees and shrubs as well as for maintaining hedges.
The Japanese white oak handles absorb vibrations very well, making them a very pleasant experience to work with. The combination of a 145 mm blade and a 300 mm handle ensures perfect balance and sufficient strength.
These Japanese Okatsune hedge trimmers (Karikomi Basami) have blades uniquely forged from the highest quality IZUMO YASUGI steel. They have a very high hardness of 60 HRD to 61 HRD. Therefore, the blades remain sharp for a long time.
The scissors make a clean cut without much effort. Okatsune combines the hardness of steel with its specific elasticity. This ensures that the blades always touch tightly, even with intensive use.
