Product Description

The FELCO 171M has been developed to introduce gardeners to the legendary quality, durability and cutting performance that has made FELCO the benchmark in professional pruning tools worldwide. Combining modern ergonomics with Swiss precision engineering, it offers a comfortable and reliable solution for everyday garden maintenance.

Its high-quality hardened carbon steel blade and counter blade feature chrome plating for improved corrosion resistance and durability. The precision-ground bypass cutting head produces clean, accurate cuts through green branches up to 20mm in diameter, encouraging healthier plant growth while making pruning easier and more efficient. An integrated sap groove helps prevent the blade from sticking when cutting fresh timber, while the wire-cutting notch adds extra versatility.

The lightweight red polyurethane (PU) handles with black thermoplastic rubber (TPR) overmoulding provide excellent grip and comfort, even during extended pruning sessions. FELCO's newly designed thumb catch enables fast, smooth one-handed operation, while the durable cutting adjustment system ensures long-lasting precision with minimal maintenance.

Manufactured in Switzerland, the FELCO 171M is built to last. A dedicated maintenance kit containing the blade, spring, bolt, nut and shock absorber is available, helping extend the working life of the tool and ensuring reliable performance season after season.
