this is the second corona pruner, I have had the other for maybe 5 years and purchased after breaking several others, what attracted me to the brand is the lifetime warranty. I have not had to use the warranty but its nice to know the company has put enough into the design that they can stand behind it. my other has even stood up to my forgetting it outside several times. The size is perfect and grips make it a little easier to handle, they may feel a little stiff at first but loosen after a few cuts. The blade can be reshaped also where on lots of other models it can not. So this one cuts up to 1/2" dia. branches, its perfect for shrubs and roses. I did a bunch of trimming and could feel when it took to much effort to cut through, out of curiosity I measured the branches and yup they were 1/2" , so its nice to have a gauge of what it can handle. these also come in other sizes to handle larger branches, the other I have does 1". I would recommend oiling if storing for long periods.

This branch and stem pruner has a 1/2 inch cutting capacity and is spring loaded to open. The scissor type blades are sharp, the handles are non-slip, and there is a built in locking clasp to keep the blades together while carrying and for storage. I use the these for pruning rose bushes, cutting stems off trees and to occasionally cut briar patches. These are nice.

This Corona branded gardening pruner is a quality pruner which will be passed on to the younger generation and I can validate the durability of Corona Pruners. Pictures shown below clearly show my newest Corona Pruner next to my 15+ year old Corona Pruner which has served me well all these years. These pruners are “forged” metal and will not dull no matter how many cuts you accumulate over the years. Almost maintenance free however a few drops of oil after a quick wipe down insures longevity and reliability. If you are tired of having to replace gardening tools every few years from wear consider Corona branded tools!

These cutters are a real nice and boy do they cut like a razor blade! I used these to cut & trim and I was very impressed with how easy it was. The steel blades performed very well. The non slip grip kept them firmly in my hands and they felt good. They look a little small but don't let that fool you. They do have a clip to keep them closed and stored safely so that the cutting edge doesn't get dulled when you store them away. This is a good investment without the bulkiness or the worry of them being a cheep replication. Very nice!

like the size indicates, it is best suited for a small hand the advertised 1/2" limit is a practical limitation, if you want to prune larger diameter then get a larger sized pruner does the job on small ones though

I read all of the reviews before I purchased this pruner and the reviewers were right on the money. They feel nice in your hand and they cut quite well up to 1/2 inch branches. I hope they stay sharp for a long time.

I have used these 1/2 inch Corona clippers for 40 years now. They fit a smaller hand perfectly whereas the more commonly available 3/4 inch clippers are too large and heavy. The convenience of ordering them online through Home Depot was a real advantage, as I can no longer purchase them locally.

CORONA(BP3180) MAX FORGED 1" CLASSIC CUT PROFESSIONAL -GRADE PRECISION FROM THE FIRST.CUT TO THE LAST. Season after season the Corona BP 3180 is ready to cut up to 1" branches and stems. Corona garden and field tools were first introduced in the 1920's as a new pruning tool for the orange industry in California and has branched into a nationwide distributor.If you can't cut it with this pruner, you need a loppers. A powerful tool that will make your precision cut.

Always wanted to try the Corona Classic Cut Forged Bypass Pruner after I saw them on my local home and garden show. I have other pruners one of which is a Womens ratchet pruner, but sometimes they just don't work well all the time. I have medium size hands and they fit my hand nicely, spring open, and have a simple closure latch that can be operated either left or right handed. I like the forged steel construction and that it has replaceable blades. Cuts up to 1 inch branches which will help. I do a lot of outside gardening and look forward to using these and I think they will last a long time!

The pruner is solid forged and feel solid in hand. I have no problem cutting through anything I can get the jaws around without bending anything. The spring that holds the pruner open is nice and strong, I do not think I will ever have to worry about it failing as with other types of pruners. The handle is a dipped vinyl but it is not smooth.I have more control holding the pruners. The package states that the pruner can be resharpened. I like that because everything becomes dull after repeated use.

I got to try these out this weekend. I used them on some Cypress at the side of the house and a Ficus tree in our entry courtyard.They worked very well for both uses. I have not tried them on anything very thick, as yet, but they cut very cleanly and easily with little effort. The handle is nice and has a slip resistance coating. I really like that they are made to be resharpened when needed. I am pleased with these pruners and will put them to more uses in the coming weeks.

These Corona pruners are awesome. Each blade and handle is made from one piece of forged steel, not stamped sheet metal, or plastic. The action is smooth, and the spring does a good job of extending the handles, so they don't fall out of your hand. My wife loves this pruner. The size fits her hands well, but it also works for me. The blade holds an edge fairly well, and when it gets dull, you can sharpen it with a file or rotary tool. We have a 20-year-old pair of Corona's which we still use - I've sharpened that pair many times and they still work well. This is a quality tool, made to last, the way tools used to be made.

I do a lot of garden work in summers. I finally got a new pair of garden branch and stem pruners. They are very comfortable in the hand, even when wearing gloves for roses. The blade is high carbon steel that should hold its edge while allowing me to sharpen. The red handles will make it easier to spot in the yard. The weight is lighter than some of the heavy duty pruners I have used. These are meant for one half inch or less. There is a limited lifetime guarantee.

This bypass pruner is the best! Fits perfectly in your hand, and takes care of all kinds of medium pruning. Stays sharp, but I have my husband clean and sharpen it to keep it in tip-top shape...and I use the heck out of it!

Excellent!
I do a lot of gardening and these are in my pocket all the time. They fit comfortably in my hand and cut cleanly through plant material up to a half an inch in diameter with ease. These pruners are well made, highly functional and will last for years. Best of all, they are affordable!
