The KUDO double spring secateurs were born from demand amongst KUDO’s orchard customers who use them all day long. The double spring ensures the blades open with each grip, while the Type F shape of the secateurs are inspired by European-style models, offering those accustomed to them a comfortable experience while using them.
Each set of secateurs comes with a spare spring and is presented in a gift box. Perfect as a gift for a keen gardener.

Japanese blacksmiths (kaji) have long been revered for their precision blades and metalwork, but their industry has declined due to mass imports and a disposable culture.
