Editorial Review: Amazon.com Review: Produced by a leader in the garden tools market, the Fiskars PowerGear bypass pruner is perfect for precise clean cutting of green growth. The pruner features Fiskars's trademarked PowerGear design, which maximizes leverage for more pruning power for your effort. As you clasp the pruner, the outside handle actually rotates with the gears, an ingenious design that minimizes strain and fatigue while providing impressive results. The replaceable ultrahardened steel blade is designed to stay sharp longer than leading blades, and the handles are made of reinforced nylon engineered for strength and lightness. Fiskars PowerGear tools have been awarded the Arthritis Foundation's ease-of-use commendation. Designed with comfort in mind, the tool fits perfectly in the hand. With its 3/4-inch cutting capacity, this is definitely a professional quality pruner, but even weekend gardeners can benefit from its fantastic design. Lifetime warranty. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Best invention since sliced bread.Great pruners - the rotating handle mechanism virtually eliminates sore hands and the dreaded "pinch" when a branch suddenly breaks and the fleshy part of your thumb or palm gets caught. After some heavy pruning this season, these finally gave out after years of service. Absolutely no complaints considering the abuse they took. I'm buying two pairs and dumping my others into the recycle bin for good. Once you've tried these, you won't accept the other junk that's out there, ... Read More Rating:  - Plastic DisintegratesI loved this tool until it was two years old and the plastic, which is integral to the mechanism, completely disintegrated in the middle of a simple quarter inch cut of a live branch. I'm going all metal from now on. Rating: - best pruners I ever usedI just did a real-life comparison test of Felco #13 and Fiskars PowerGear 7936. The Fiskars won hands down in power, ease of cut, and comfort. The test piece was a 5/8" thick peach tree trunk that had dried up and is very solid and hard. It's harder than even a birch dowel, but the Fiskars sliced through it with ease using just a one hand grip. With the Felco 13, I had to use two hands on the long handles to achieve the same size cut and even then, the cut using one hand with the Fiskars took noticeably ... Read More Rating: - A manly toolI purchased the Fiskars Power Gear Pruners as a Christmas present for my wife. Unfortunately, they don't fit. By that I mean that the pruners are too large for my wife's hand, and she does not have small hands. The upside is that she has given them to me and I find them to be powerful. It is still early to give a full evaluation, but so far, they are very good. Rating:  - I wish I could say I like this itemI wish I could say I like this item, so many folks do...and Fiskars makes GREAT stuff, most of the time. But, if you have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, these pruners are a nightmare. They don't tell you that the handle ROLLS when you squeeze it closed. You have to grip it relatively tightly, a very painful experience for those of us with CTS. I assume this isn't a problem for those with arthritis (don't know why), but it would be SO NICE if they told folks about this rather odd feature ON THE DESCRIPTION....
