I am a Felco person, they are a bit more but mine are still as good as
the
day I bought them over 20 years ago now.

(I do sharpen them nearly every time I use them)

Watch Amazon for special offers. Under £30 recently.

Thanks Charlie, Spider and Martin. Hadn't heard of Felco before. Looking
on
ebay, they do a large number of models.

There's a 160l at £17 and a # 5 at £25. :- http://tinyurl.com/mbuooe9

I will give Amazon a look-see.

Have a look at these - Bahco P121-23 230mm bypass secateurs. Less than half
the price of an equivalent Felco and just as good imo. I've had my pair for
over 20 years and they are still going strong.
