Exceptional Bypass Pruner…and ALL METAL. On 07/2721014, I purchased this CORONA BP 3180 Clasic Cut, 1″, Forged Bypass Pruner after an extensive search at local DIY retailers and Garden Centers. In the past 10 yrs, I’ve gone through 8 pruners, almost 1 per years at the cost of $9-14 apiece. Each of those 8 pruners had some weak plastic part that broke or an unsecured tension spring that either failed or was lost. I was SO frustrated that prominent garden tool manufacturers employed cheap plastic on tools that by their nature, would get a heavy workout. My hunt locally was a bomb, because even $20-$30 pruners had plastic pieces in critical points. I was determined to find an ALL-METAL pair of of hand-held bypass pruners. My choice of this Corona BP3180, 1″ Pruner was an AWESOME choice! The product is ALL Metal (forged steel alloy), has a simple but functional design, and has handled all sorts of pruning chores. It’s now 9mo. later that I’m writing this review, and these pruners have taken me through 3 Seasons of unusually active yard work without one hiccup. The pruner blade seems to hold a sharp edge well, as I’ve sharpened it only once. The grip is extremely comfortable, and the spring action is smooth and tight. One particular note: I have a large hand (L-XL size glove), and I believe the grip might be too large for an avg. woman’s hand or a small man’s hand. I find the spring tension to be perfect, which allows for an easy repetition of quick-cuts, while remains firmly in my hand. The metal blade-locking mechanism is both simple and strong, plus very handy when tucking the pruner in my pocket. The rubber-like coating on the handle grips also lends to its secure grip. I highly recommend this Corona Bypass Prunner (BP3180) if you’re needing a strong workhorse pruner, and you’re tired of wasting money on cheap plastic tools. At US21, this 1″ pruner is a not only an exceptional product, but also a great value…and definitely worthy of replacing your waiting-to-break, metal-plastic doo-hickey. -jRA
I haven’t found the perfect pruner yet. I bought the Corona BP 3180D because I was looking for a pruner that has solved the two design problems with my current pruner, the Felco 2. First, the mechanism that locks the Corona pruner into the closed position never sticks or slips because it consists of a little metal hoop on one arm that fits over a hook on the other arm. In contrast, my Felco has a metal pointer that is screwed to one arm and fits into a gear on the other arm. This pointer keeps coming loose, dropping onto the gear and preventing the pruner from opening. If I tighten the screw firmly to keep the pointer from dropping into the gear, it becomes too tight for me to move with my thumb when I want to lock the pruner. If I loosen the screw a little, after a few minutes of pruning it loosens even more and jams the pruner again. Very frustrating.Second, the Corona is designed so that I can’t pinch my thumb between the two arms when I close the blade. I have received several nasty blood blisters on my thumb when it was pinched between the two arms of my Felco pruner.Do these design superiorities make the Corona the perfect pruner? Unfortunately, no. The strongest cutting power of a pruner is achieved when the twig is placed as deep as possible between the blades and when my hand grips the pruner as far back as possible, a condition that produces maximum leverage. This optimum position of twig and hand is not achievable with the Corona because, when the blades are wide apart the two arms are so wide apart that my hand is not long enough to grip both arms at once. I should mention that I have a typical male hand, 9 inches from pointer finger to thumb when spread out. Of course, I could slide my hand toward the blades, gripping the pruner arms closer to the blades. And I could back the twig off a bit between the blades, but then I would lose a lot of leverage, reducing the cutting power.I also bought the Fiskars pruner (EA0223). Like the Corona it has a fail proof locking mechanism. Unfortunately, if you grip the Fiskars pruner with your thumb in the wrong place it will deliver nasty pinch. I guess eventually I could train myself to place my thumb out of harms way but I’m not always aware of my thumb position when pruning lots of shrubs.There is one other result from my testing that you might find interesting. I tried all three of these pruners on my most frequent task, clearing dead wood out of trees and shrubs. None of them could cut a 1/2 inch diameter twig unless I used two hands. The 1 inch maximum diameter that the manufacturers claim must have resulted from testing on soft, green, wood like Rose canes or willow twigs. In contrast, I’m cutting perennial shrubs and hardwood trees. On this kind of wood all three of the pruners could cut 1/4 inch diameter twig easily, 3/8 inch diameter with some difficulty and 1/2 inch only by switching to my lopper.
Still looking for PRUNERS for someone with Big Hands. I am a NYC Citizen Pruner (see treesny dot org). It’s a Hobby and a good thing to do. I am also a VERY TALL 6’7″ & Large person 308lbs – think size 16 shoes, XXXL Gloves and 3XL TALL shirts and 8-1/4 to 8-1/2 hats.I purchased these because they seemed to be larger than all the others and they are, but only marginally.These are not the large size that I would want (suggestions anyone?) but they are my current goto pruners.Recommended!
Well made shears. My wife loves to garden and these shears are great. They are the third pair I have gotten for her as she has a tendency to loose things while in the garden.Well made and sturdy with very nice blade that sharpens nicely.
Great hand pruner. Best hand pruner I have ever owned. New one is just as good as the old one I lost.
Fits my hand perfectly. Cuts very well and has lasted for a while now.
Top quality. After losing my other sheers, I purchased these to replace the lost ones, and these are amazing. I love the ease at which they cut and the best part is that even after leaving these outside for a long period of time they haven’t rusted.I love the lock that they have which makes it easy to open and closeThe red handle not only makes it easy to find when I put them down but the grip on it is really good.

Sturdy and easy to handle. I have used (and lost) many clippers. These are sharp and sturdy and the red handle helps me find them.

Good tool. A good, heavy duty tool with a bit of heft to them. Worth the money, which really isn’t unreasonable.
Nice pruner. Comfortable to hold, nice and sharp ( as one would hope!) & appears and feels well made. I would recommend and may but a second one next season.

Great product at an awesome price. Way better than than the Fiskars I had been purchasing. Very sharp and comfy. There are cheaper but these will last, just clean them up when you are done and a drop of synthetic lubricant.

Sharp and strong. Very happy I returned the ones I bought before this.
