When you see plenty of “knock-offs” of a product, it indicates that the original is of high value and has built a reputation that others want to ride the coattails of. A quick search online for “Felco Pruners” will yield a listing of other brands and counterfeits similar to the Felco® original, but they aren’t even close.

Felco 2 pruners are the “grand-daddy” of hand pruners (also known as “secateurs”), not only for others to copy, but they have been the inspiration for several other models that Felco® offers.

They are not inexpensive. You’ll pay $65 to $80, depending on where you buy them. In my view, these are not a purchase, they are an investment. Let me tell you why.

I've used a lot of hand pruners over the years, but the crafted in Switzerland Felco 2 is in a class of its own. Right out of the box, the build quality is obvious — solid forged aluminum handles, a smooth cutting action, and blades that stay sharp through serious use. It feels professional because it is professional.

What stands out is the clean, precise cuts (up to 1”!). Whether I'm deadheading flowers, pruning fruit trees, or tackling thicker shrub stems, the Felco 2 handles it all with ease and comfort. The ergonomic design reduces hand fatigue during long sessions, and the adjustable blade tension allows personalization of the tool.

I also appreciate that every part is replaceable. This isn’t a tool you throw away after a season — it’s an investment that can last a lifetime with proper care. The Swiss are renowned for quality, which shows in these Swiss-made tools. You can check out their entire line of pruners, pruning shears, loppers, and wire cutters at:

The bottom line? If you invest time in the garden, the Felco 2 is worth every penny. Reliable, durable, and a joy to use.
