Tobisho Topiary ClippersThe Japanese name for this tool is hakaribasami, which means leaf cutting scissors, and it's crucial not to cut old, hard growth, just soft green stuff. Designed to be used single handedly, leaving your other hand free, the long blades and spring action make clipping a breeze. Excellent for finessing your topiary and precision cutting at awkward angles in tight spaces. The locking mechanism (the clasp at the bottom of the handles) is very deliberate
