Description: |
Both blades have sharp chisel edges. The patented feature is the blade tips which prevent the cutting edges from cutting into each other. Other aspects of the shears shown in the drawings were highlighted in Rhodes' advertising for the "Double Cut Pruning Shear."
Some ads note several sizes including a robust form strong enough to be used as a dehorner. |
