The Ashinaga bonsai scissors are the perfect every-day pruning shears for me. With enough strength to cleanly cut lignified hardwood with ease, while being fine enough for delicate pruning of shohin trees. These scissors are professionally sharp, cleanly cutting paper where other tools rip. Avoiding torn tissue when pruning reduces die-back and improves callus formation, so my trees continue to develop rapidly. The Yasugi steel Ashinaga bonsai scissors are a delight to use, definitely my go-to shears

I recently had the pleasure of using the Yasugi Steel Ashinaga bonsai pruning shears, and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed by the quality and ergonomics of this tool.
Firstly, the quality of the shears was apparent from the moment I picked them up. The blades were sharp and precise, allowing for clean cuts. The handles felt sturdy and durable, ensuring that the tool would last for many years to come.
In addition to its quality, the ergonomic design of the shears was also exceptional. The handles were contoured to fit comfortably in my hand, reducing strain and fatigue during prolonged pruning sessions.

Overall, I would highly recommend the Yasugi Steel Ashinaga bonsai pruning shears to any bonsai enthusiast. It's exceptional quality and ergonomic design makes it a joy to use and a valuable addition to any bonsai toolkit.
