What are the Spear and Jackson Razorsharp PRO Heavy Duty like to use?
These feel sturdy, capable and long lasting. They have rubber shock absorbers on the handles to make cutting larger stems comfortable but the central safety catch often caught halfway through a cut which was frustrating. Cutting width also needed to be adjusted for different size stems. The plastic-coated handles are bright red so easy to spot if mislaid.
Are the Spear and Jackson Razorsharp PRO Heavy Duty good value for money?
Towards the higher end of the price range these are robust with replaceable blades and springs. They also have a long 10 year guarantee.
Who are the Spear and Jackson Razorsharp PRO Heavy Duty most useful for?
Useful for amateur gardeners for everyday pruning jobs.
