Pliers & Cutters

Good cutting tools are judged in the hand, where control matters as much as sharpness. This edit of Pliers & Cutters brings together knob, branch and root cutters for bonsai work, alongside guarded safety cutters, utility knives and ceramic scalpels for day-to-day jobs. Expect auto-retractable designs, replacement blades and heads, plus deburring tools, seam rippers and compact scissors for detailed finishing. For broader searches, it also covers safety knives and box cutters used on site and in the workshop. Brands include PHC, Slice and Yorkshire Bonsai.
