Kynup Garden Secateurs SK-5 Steel Bypass Pruners

These bypass secateurs from Kynup are built around precision-ground SK-5 steel blades that hold a sharp edge through heavy use. A rust-resistant coating makes them well suited to the damp conditions typical of UK gardens, and they can comfortably handle woody stems and branches up to 25mm in diameter. Whether you're working through rose bushes, fruit trees or dense hedging, the clean bypass cutting action reduces crushing and helps plants heal more quickly.

Comfort over longer pruning sessions has clearly been a priority in the design. The silicone-wrapped handles provide a secure grip even when your hands are wet, and the ergonomic shaping reduces the strain that builds up during repetitive cutting. The hardened pivot bolt keeps the blades aligned under pressure, so the tool performs consistently rather than twisting or sticking when you hit tougher growth.

A simple slide-lock mechanism makes the secateurs safe to carry in a pocket or tool bag without risk of accidental opening, and it releases quickly when you're ready to get back to work. The aluminium alloy handles keep the overall weight down without sacrificing strength, making these a practical everyday tool for pruning, shaping and general garden maintenance throughout the year.
