A friend introduced me to a ratcheting hand pruner made by Florian Tools. A
wonderful device and now my favorite tool. When I went to their web site, I
found they were the makers of my formerly favorite tool--a large ratcheting
pruner that can handle muscular jobs. Arthritic gardeners can't exert the
hand strength necessary for some jobs, but these tools supply it for you.
They hold up very well, too.
