Jakoti hand shears

Proving that great things come in small packages, Jakoti hand shears are so versatile. Compact, comfortable to handle and clean cutting, these long bladed shears are really useful. They are ideal for cutting back perennials, trimming ornamental grasses, shaping that topiary, clipping, lawn edging and dead heading. Whether you have a small backyard or acre upon acre, you’ll find many uses for these handy hand shears. A pair were first bought for Dot Tinker by her daughter when visiting a small Greek island, Dot liked them so much that her son now imports the shears. My hands are very small, I often have problems with unwieldy garden tools made for much bigger hands, but I found these to be a perfect fit with their ergonomically designed handles. Over the years I have had many shears, secateurs and cutters, but nothing as good as this. I know my Jakoti hand shears are going to be used an awful lot, and at just 14.95 GBP per pair plus 2.50 mainland postage and packing, these really are a snip. They would make a great present for Mother’s Day too, or any time of year. So get yourself a pair now by calling+44 (0) 1458 850066 or visit the website atwww.handshears.co.uk
