From the manufacturer
Spear & Jackson
Spear & Jackson has been selling hand, garden, contractors, agricultural and landscaping tools since 1760.
The company was founded in the City of Sheffield, which is famous for the production of steel, cutlery and hand tools and continues to be our home over 250 years later.
Traditional Secateurs Set
The Spear & Jackson Traditional Secateurs Set is ideal for both serious and amateur gardeners alike. The bypass secateurs utilise a scissor like cutting action which is best suited to use on living or ‘green’ stems and delivers a cleaner cut than the anvil style secateurs which use a knife like cutting action onto the flat anvil. Anvil secateurs are ideal for use on thicker, or dead ‘woody’ material, but will crush or distort the cut when used on green stems.
- Drop forged carbon steel blades for strength and durability
- Non-slip cushion grips for increased comfort
- Safety locking catches
- Contains bypass + anvil secateurs

Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5)As an avid gardener, I’ve had my fair share of experiences with pruning tools over the years, but none have impressed me as much as the Spear and Jackson Traditional Bypass and Anvil Secateurs Set. This twin pack of secateurs is a game-changer when it comes to maintaining my garden, and I couldn’t be happier with the results.Quality Build and Durability (5/5):The first thing that struck me about these secateurs is their robust and sturdy construction. Spear and Jackson is a brand known for its quality, and these secateurs are no exception. The blades are made of high-quality carbon steel, and they have maintained their sharpness even after extensive use. The handles are ergonomically designed, providing a comfortable grip and reducing hand fatigue during long pruning sessions. I can tell that these secateurs are built to last, which is a crucial factor for any serious gardener.Bypass Secateurs (5/5):The bypass secateurs in this set are perfect for delicate pruning tasks. They make clean and precise cuts, allowing me to trim branches and stems with ease. The bypass mechanism ensures a smooth and accurate cut without crushing the plant tissue, promoting healthier growth. These secateurs are ideal for shaping my rose bushes and trimming my fruit trees.Anvil Secateurs (5/5):The anvil secateurs, on the other hand, are excellent for tackling thicker branches and tougher jobs. I use them to prune deadwood, remove overgrown branches, and even for cutting through dry and woody stems. The anvil design provides extra leverage, making it effortless to handle even the most challenging pruning tasks.Ease of Use (5/5):Both the bypass and anvil secateurs are incredibly easy to use. The locking mechanism is simple and effective, ensuring safety when not in use. The set also includes a blade cleaning sponge, which is a thoughtful addition for maintenance. I appreciate the fact that Spear and Jackson has considered every detail to make these secateurs user-friendly.Value for Money (5/5):Considering the exceptional quality and performance of these secateurs, the twin pack offers unbeatable value for money. Having both bypass and anvil secateurs in one set covers all my pruning needs without breaking the bank. I’ve spent more on single secateurs that didn’t perform as well as this set.In conclusion, the Spear and Jackson Traditional Bypass and Anvil Secateurs Set (Twin Pack) have exceeded my expectations in every way. Their durability, precision, and versatility have made them an indispensable tool in my gardening arsenal. Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or a novice, I wholeheartedly recommend this set. It’s a wise investment that will undoubtedly enhance your gardening experience and yield healthier, more beautiful plants.
Mr. George Johnson –
I had a cheap £10 set from B&Q with plastic handles and they broke after about a week. These on the other hand are worth every penny. Solid metal from blades to handle, simple rubber coating and tough against all but the thickis, sappiest branches. Highly recommended.
