Fiskars PowerGear2 UltraBlade Lopper uses patented technology to multiply your leverage, providing up to 3x more power on every cut. The innovative design includes modified gears and a specially engineered cam mechanism that optimizes your cutting power in the middle of the cut, where the branch is thickest and you need it most, ideal for pruning branches up to 2 in. thick. This lopper’s fully hardened, bypass-style steel blade is enhanced with an UltraBlade coating that keeps it sharp up to 5x longer than untreated blades while protecting against rust and making every cut even smoother. The rounded ergonomic handles feature SoftGrip for comfort and control.
