Kew Gardens Ratchet Anvil Secateurs

Give a gardener a practical tool for tougher pruning jobs. Kew Gardens Ratchet Anvil Secateurs divide each cut into four short steps, helping you work through harder, thicker branches with a controlled ratchet action.

Design and materials

High-carbon steel blades provide strength and lasting sharpness, paired with metal anvils for durability. A lightweight cast aluminium body and aluminium-alloy handles keep the tool manageable, while non-slip soft grips improve comfort. The compact size is particularly useful for smaller hands.

Choosing the right tool

Use the ratchet action as directed and work within the tool’s stated cutting capacity on the packaging. For tender living green stems, a bypass secateur may be a more suitable choice.

Care and storage

Clean and dry after use, follow the supplied maintenance instructions and store safely out of children’s reach.
