A.G. Russell Knives

Most horticultural or pruning knives being made today are very inexpensive and will not hold an edge. If your idea is to own a disposable knife, the common pruning knife on the market will probably satisfy you. If you want a knife that will deliver a perfect cut and will last for years, consider this elegant Japanese-made pruning knife with black Micarta® handle scales dressed with a turquoise and red fiber inlay. The 2-1/2" pruning blade is AUS-8 at 57-59 Rc., known for its superb edge. Ground this thin (1/16"), it will cut quickly and cleanly, saving time and effort. Has nickel silver bolsters and liners. Measures 3-5/8" closed and weighs 2.2 oz. Made in Japan.
