What Is a Bypass Pruner and How Does It Work?
A bypass pruner is a type of hand-held scissors used to trim small branches and stems. It features two sharp blades that bypass each other during the cutting action, preventing the plant from being crushed or damaged. This design ensures clean and precise cuts, making it perfect for pruning shrubs, trees, deadheading flowers, and cutting back herbs.

Bypass Pruner vs Anvil Pruner: Key Differences
The main difference between a bypass pruner and an anvil pruner lies in their cutting mechanism. In a bypass pruner, the two blades bypass each other, providing a clean, precise cut without damaging the plant. In contrast, an anvil pruner uses a single blade that cuts against a flat surface, resulting in a crushing action that may harm plants. For more delicate and precise cuts, bypass pruners are generally preferred over anvil pruners.
How to Choose the Right Size Bypass Pruner
Choosing the right size bypass pruner is essential for comfort and efficiency. A pruner that is too large or heavy may cause hand fatigue, while one that is too small may lack the leverage needed for thicker branches. Look for a pruner with an ergonomic handle that fits comfortably in your hand, offering optimal control and reducing strain on your hand and wrist.
How to Care for Your Bypass Pruner
To ensure your bypass pruner remains in excellent condition, regular maintenance is key. Clean the blades after each use to remove dirt and debris. Periodically oil the blades to prevent rust and keep them sharp. When not in use, store the pruner in a dry place to protect it from moisture. The blade is easily sharpened and adjusted to maintain its optimal performance.
