Some of the most satisfying jobs in the garden are the little ones: snipping off a spent rose, tidying a lavender, or cutting a few stems to bring indoors. This pocket pruner means you can do them the moment you spot them.
At around 14cm long and light in the hand, it slips easily into a pocket, apron or garden bag, so it's there whenever you need it. It's just right for deadheading, trimming soft stems and cutting flowers, and comfortable for smaller hands too. A safety clip keeps the blades closed when it's not in use.
Flower arrangers love it for quick, neat cuts when conditioning and arranging cut flowers.
Featured in the Financial Times gift guide, FT Weekend, 5 December 2026.
A little gift that gets used again and again, it makes a perfect stocking filler for keen gardeners, flower arrangers and anyone who likes to keep their pots and borders looking their best.
For finer, more delicate work, see our Mini Herb Snips, or for a beautifully made Japanese pair, our Japanese Forged Snips.
Keep the blades in perfect condition with a few drops of tool oil. Choose Niwaki's Camellia Tool Care Oil, the traditional Japanese way to protect steel blades, or our White Tool Oil.
