For a hand held pruning shears, Felco #2.
For loppers, Fiskars.
For hand saw (pruning and trimming) Silky Big Boy (red handle).
For bigger limbs, Stihl chainsaw.

Easy to vote your way into socialism, but impossible to vote your way out of it.

I bought a French made Bahco for pruning roses. Highly rated by the rose folks, it's a bypass pruner. It works fine and is comfortable to use, I only ever had cheap anvil pruners before...I have no other experience with pruners but I believe Fiskars makes one and their products are always good. Maybe see what the commercial grape guys use, they do a lot of pruning. I'm in the same camp and gcs.

Thanks everyone. I'll go with Felco or Fiskars. I think they will be worth the money. I do wish the pruners were a little cheaper though.
Keith Good pruners aint cheap.Cheap pruners aint good.
