Fiskars Ratcheting Anvil Pruner Jul 25, 2002
Works fine on branches 1/2 inch or less. It is rated to 3/4 inch, but branches much over 1/2 inch it became hard to get it to ratchet and the blades tended to bend. My pruner handle gave out after one summer of use. Fiskars has yet to respond to my request regarding weather they will be replacing it under its "life time warranty."

Broken Promises Jan 11, 2003
After only a couple of months of use, the flimsy handle broke. It didn't always ratchet either!

broke the first time out Feb 01, 2006
By Samuel N. Starkey I got about 20 minutes of use out of this and I was just thinking that it was doing really well for the price, when it broke in two going through a 1/2" piece of ivy.
On closer inspection, the middle is made of plastic. It should really be metal. It turns out the ratcheting mechanism gives more torque than the handle can take.
It might be good for cutting flowers or something, but don't rely on it for bigger jobs even though it says it is good up to 3/4".

Don't make them like they used to..... May 18, 2009
By Fixer Dad
"Cheap Quality"
I purchased these to replace a like pair that I lost to divorce. I loved that first pair and thought these were identical. Unfortunately, Fiskars seems to have lowered their quality in the last 7 years. I still like Fiskars and I like these pruners. However, they are made in China and you should probably go for the cheaper, no name brand that admits to being made in China.

Should've known better... May 30, 2008
By W. Jenks I had a cheap pair of ratchet anvil pruners I was replacing that lasted several years. But I should've known better than to buy another plastic one. This broke the first cut on a branch no bigger than a half inch - really. And, no, it wasn't iron wood. Better stick with loppers or bypass clippers. I'll read up on other Fiskar products before buying again.
