Product Description
The FELCO 171L introduces home gardeners and enthusiasts to the legendary quality that has made FELCO the preferred choice of professionals around the world. Combining modern ergonomics with Swiss precision engineering, it offers exceptional cutting performance, comfort and durability for everyday pruning tasks.
The precision-ground hardened carbon steel blade and counter blade feature a durable chrome-plated finish that improves corrosion resistance and extends blade life. The updated blade geometry delivers smoother, more efficient cutting through live branches up to 25mm in diameter, while the bypass cutting action produces clean cuts that promote healthy plant growth. An integrated sap groove helps prevent the blade from sticking during use, and the wire-cutting notch adds versatility for a range of gardening tasks.
Designed specifically for large right-handed users, the lightweight red polyurethane (PU) handles with black thermoplastic rubber (TPR) overmoulding provide a secure, comfortable grip during extended pruning sessions. The exclusive new thumb-catch design enables quick, smooth one-handed operation, while the durable blade adjustment system ensures long-lasting cutting accuracy with minimal maintenance.
Built in Switzerland, the FELCO 171L is made to provide years of dependable service. A dedicated maintenance kit containing the blade, spring, bolt, nut and shock absorber is available, allowing users to keep their secateurs performing like new for many seasons.
