These Alligators have bite!

I've found my loppers invaluable over the past year. I must admit I traditionally preferred my tried and tested gardening tools, but after helping my brother-in-law regain control in his garden I have been a convert.

What I love about them is that although they have a lot of "welly" and deliver fast and clean cuts, they still feel perfectly safe to use (because of the Alligator design).

The Alligator jaws clamp the branch you want to cut and only when the 2 safety switches have been pressed (one on each handle) does it start to cut. It sounds like a faff, but it is really isn't and it saves hours of backbreaking work versus a bow saw or an axe.

As with all tools there is a little maintenance required (oil added etc) to keep them in perfect order, but this isn't onerous versus what would be backbreaking work without them.

In a nutshell they are a great product and I would thoroughly recommend them!
