Garden Grafting Tool Multifunctional Pruning Kit V-Graft Seedling for Fruit Tree Grafting, Including 2 Different Sizes Graft Tapes, 1 Screwdriver, 1 Replacement Blade,Red

I bought these shears because I'm a newbie grafter and I have trouble making a clean whip cut. I find my knife often twists though the wood, leaving a bizarre surface that's hard to mate. These shears don't solve my problem. They don't cut cleanly though the whole scion, leaving a ragged edge at the end. Furthermore, the piece that is cut off often becomes lodged in the gap just below the blade. I wound up just using the knife after all. Practice will prevail.

I received the item within 10 days here in ZA. I found the cutting blade very sharp. I guess a touch up on a ceramic stone and strop will even sharpening it further. I have tested it on a few twigs and I am impressed with what I got for the money spend. I managed to make the various cuts perfectly. I must say I have watched a few Scionon videos and I immediately succeeded by using the correct angles and push away from my body. There was no damage to the bark of the scion. I bought it to make a few grafts, not commercially. I know this is a cheaper version, but it is made well. If you maintain it properly and keep the steel parts rust free, it will last a few years. If you sharpen it even further as is, you will get even better results. I will recommend this product. I rated it 5/5 for a knockoff. Rated against the Scionon, I may give a 4/5.

The build quality seems ok but it was very difficult to get a clean cut. This may be due to the blade being dull or the angle of the cut being improper.

dangerous design having a heavy, sharp hacking blade. this tool freaks me out.

Hard to use, will not provide the clean cut to make the graft.

Se ve de buena calidad espero que dure muchos años.
