Many gardeners assume that one pruner can handle all tasks, but matching the tool to the job can make a significant difference. The Gardener's Friend guide explains that there are important differences between the two types of pruners, especially for gardeners in their golden years who are seeking ergonomic tools.

Readers can learn how bypass pruners work like scissors, with two sharp blades gliding past each other to make clean cuts on living branches. This design minimizes plant damage, allowing for faster healing and reducing the risk of disease. Some models are ergonomically designed for right-handed users, ensuring comfort and ease of use during long gardening sessions.

In contrast, anvil pruners have a single cutting blade that closes onto a flat surface, providing extra cutting power for thicker, dry branches. This makes them ideal for clearing out dead wood and managing overgrown shrubs. The guide points out that each type of pruner has its place in a well-equipped gardener’s toolkit, and depending on the plants being tended, having both tools may be the best approach.

Essentially, bypass pruners excel at making precise cuts on live plants, while anvil pruners provide stronger cutting force for dead branches. Having both tools ensures that every plant receives the right care, leading to healthier gardens and easier maintenance. With the right tools in hand and proper technique, gardeners can enjoy more effective pruning with less strain on hands and wrists.
