I have NOT found a better pruner. This has got to be the best one made yet! Even through some of the toughest plants, it has withstood everything. The return policy can't be beat. Thanks so much to CUTCO!

Can't Live Without Them
Every year I send my pruners back for a sharpening. I am lost without them. Thank goodness Cutco doesn't mess around. I usually have them back in a week to 10 days. I have not purchased pruners in at least 8 years, and probably will never have to. If you work in your yard at all, this tool is one you can't live without.

Ratchet Pruner
Bought a Cutco ratchet pruner several years ago and after much use decided to return it along with a friend's pruner for sharpening. Did not realize that Cutco w/o contacting me would replace the pruner with one of lesser quality thinking that we would be thrilled with their new-fangled choice. The newer one does not come close in comparison to cutting thick branches like the returned pruner. Be aware that when returning Cutco items for sharpening that they will/can replace the sent item without telling you ahead of time. Tried getting the original pruners back so we could take them to a local sharpening store but was unsuccessful with the attempt. Have been reluctant in purchasing any other Cutco products after the pruner experience. When buying from a college student by the time you realize a mistake has been made the college student is no longer selling Cutco products!!!

Second Best Cutco Investment
The rachet pruner is the second best Cutco investment that I have made! (The first is my paring knife). I have many long stem rose bushes and cut flowers for inside the house. My bushes keep blooming and blooming. I get a clean cut every time. I purchased this product many years ago at the urging of my son. I keep it in the house because I am afraid that the gardener will accidentally walk off with it! Cutco is the best.
