These secateurs are forged and finished by hand in Yamagata, deep in North Japan’s mountains. Known affectionately as the ‘double yellows,’ they blend expert craftsmanship with everyday practicality. The tough S58C carbon steel blades hold a sharp edge, while the strong spring and chunky catch give a reliable, no-nonsense feel. The bright yellow vinyl grips are easy to spot in the garden, or you can remove them for a more classic look.

Ideal for keen gardeners, landscapers, and professionals who demand precision and durability in their tools. These are the secateurs Jake reaches for time and again.
