The Top 7 Lawn Sprinklers for Thriving Grass in 2026
May 28th 2026
The Classic FELCO 2 Pruning Shear is the gold standard in hand pruners, trusted by professional landscapers and home gardeners worldwide for over 80 years. Swiss-made with forged aluminum handles and a hardened steel cutting blade, the FELCO 2 delivers clean, precise cuts on branches up to 1 inch in diameter. Its revolutionary design — featuring a wire-cutting notch, sap groove, shock-absorbing bumper, and micro-metric blade adjustment — has remained essentially unchanged because it has never needed improving. Best suited for medium to large hands. For a smaller hand fit, see the Classic FELCO 6 Pruners or the FELCO 160 Small Pruners.
Every part of the FELCO 2 is fully replaceable, making it a truly lifetime tool. Keep a Replacement Blade and Replacement Springs on hand, protect them in a FELCO Holster, and keep the blade sharp with the FELCO Sharpener.

What size hands are the FELCO 2 designed for?
The FELCO 2 is best suited for medium to large hands.
If you have smaller hands, the FELCO 6 or the FELCO 160 will provide a more comfortable and controlled grip.
How do I keep my FELCO 2 in top condition?
After each use, wipe the blade clean with a dry cloth to remove sap and debris. Use the FELCO Sharpener regularly to maintain a keen edge.
Store your pruners in the FELCO Holster to protect the blade and keep them close at hand in the garden.
Are replacement parts available for the FELCO 2?
Yes — every component of the FELCO 2 is individually replaceable, including the blade, spring, bolt, nut, and shock absorber.
DripWorks carries a Replacement Blade and Replacement Springs for the FELCO 2 so you can restore peak performance without buying a whole new tool.
What is the maximum branch diameter the FELCO 2 can cut?
The FELCO 2 is rated to cut branches up to 1 inch (25 mm) in diameter cleanly and with ease.
For larger diameter cuts, you would need a lopper or pruning saw.
