Pruning shears with a pulley and segmented (ratchet) mechanism, so a thick branch is cut in several smaller squeezes instead of one hard one.
Key Features
Pulley mechanism for extra leverage
Segmented ratchet cutting — squeeze several times to work through a branch
Much less hand effort than plain shears
Good for weaker grip or long pruning sessions
Check the maximum cutting diameter before ordering. Ratchet shears cut thicker branches than plain ones, but they are slower on soft green growth. Keep the safety catch on when not in use, keep the blades clean and oiled, and store out of reach of children.
