Craftsman Compound Action Bypass Lopper —
Craftsman Compound Action Bypass Loppers are great for a quick snip/trim around your yard and many others. I have a lot of trees, these are great for prunning. They are great if you have to remove overgrown landscape. I also use these to cut up smaller branches for firewood. The handles are made out of carbon steel which is a major plus over any type of wood. The rest is made out of aluminum, which is another plus over steel. The Loppers have a 1 1/2 inch cutting capacity, you can squeeze a little more out of them if need be. The ergonomic handles and rubber handle grips make for a very comfortable fit. Another nice feature that this tool comes with is a plastic cover over the sharp end. Most people would probably throw that out, I held on to mine to use while the loppers are not in use. Compound action so cutting is very easy. Another major plus is that this tool is very light weight. It is a Craftsman so of course the lifetime warranty is there. Buy it once and be done with it, it will save you money in the long run.
