Hiryu 190mm Professional Pruning Secateurs

Secateurs are used to prune the thinner branches and dead wood of trees and shrubs. Use a lopper or pruning saw for pruning thicker branches and dead wood.

Hiryu secateurs are made for professional gardeners. The Hiryu is a ‘flying dragon’ type of secateur. This means the blades do not touch. That is, there is a gap between the cutting blade and holding anvil. The Hiryu has additional sharpness and no friction when compared to the SR-1 secateurs. The Hiryu is also sharper than the Asuka, as the Hiryu cutting blade is thinner and honed sharper. 

The Hiryu also has four reservoirs around the screw. The reservoirs can be filled with a lubricant for a smoother action. 

The Hiryu has a different spring system compared to the SR-1. The coiled spring reduces shock to the hand, making them ideal for long hours of work involving a large amount of pruning.

Note: the Hiryu does not have a nut on the centre bolt – this is intentional. The nut is not required as the centre bolt is tightened by screwing it to the left.
