Hand pruners, also called pruning shears, pruning scissors, or secateurs, are designed to precision cut small branches, stems, and flowers up to about three quarters of an inch. Bypass pruners slice like scissors for clean cuts on living wood; anvil pruners close onto a flat plate to power through dry, dead wood. Most gardeners end up wanting one of each.

If the handles spread wider than your relaxed grip, size down to the Compact; if you feel yourself twisting through cuts, size up a tier or move to loppers. Our guide to tree pruning tools by branch size covers the full handoff from pruner to lopper to saw.
