Mini Secateurs
Description
Looking for a reliable pair of compact pruners that can handle everything from flower arranging to quick snips in the greenhouse? Say hello to Niwaki's mini secateurs. Hand-crafted from high-quality carbon steel using traditional methods in Japan, these lightweight pruners are built to last for years when properly cared for. With a maximum cut diameter of 5mm (3/16 in), they're perfect for "back pocket" jobs when larger pruners aren't needed. The leather leggings add natural character and grip that will only improve with age. A thoughtful gift for the gardener in your life.
Although Japanese carbon steel is durable, it can chip if mishandled, so use with care.

Niwaki Use + Care Instructions
Correct Use:
- Japanese steel is hard and sharp, and can be more brittle than some people are used to - it will chip if abused
- Do not cut wire, metal, stone, plastic or any other hard material
- Do not twist or apply uneven pressure
- Cut diagonally across branches (not straight across) so you cut along the fibres
- Use the base of the blades, not the tips, for heavier cuts
Keeping Them Clean:
- Remove leaf resin, rust and gunk with water and a rough cloth
- Dry, wipe over with oil and store in a dry place
Keeping Them Sharp:
New tools won’t need sharpening for some time, but after a while you’ll notice them gradually lose their edge. Use our Niwaki Maintenance Kit for best results (#1000 grit is best for general sharpening).
- Sharpen Secateurs every couple of weeks
- Sharpen Shears every time you use them - the difference is amazing
