The Fiskars PowerGear™ Anvil Loppers have handles made from FiberComp™ to make them extremely lightweight and strong with SoftGrip™ covered handles for increased comfort. The patented PowerGear™ mechanism makes the cutting 3 times easier compared to standard mechanisms. The upper blade is made from high quality hardened carbon steel ensuring that they can be sharpened and hold an edge for longer. The quality of the blade is further enhanced by a non stick PTFE coating on upper blade to reduce friction and make cutting and cleaning easier. The Fiskars PowerGear™ Anvil Loppers L77 are full sized loppers for larger cutting jobs, ideal for cutting tree branches and thicker branches. The anvil blade made from cast aluminium enables easier cutting of hard, dry wood, which is the purpose of anvil loppers.
