Okatsune Hedge Shears 214 – Long Handled, Medium-Bladed with a Wide Neck
Versatility Meets Japanese Precision
The Okatsune 214 Hedge Shears are designed for gardeners and professionals who want both extended reach and precise control. Featuring 500mm Japanese white oak handles, 175mm razor-sharp blades, and a unique wide curved neck, these hedge shears easily adapt to a variety of trimming tasks.
Unlike standard hedge shears, the wide neck creates extra space between the handles. As a result, you can grip the handles near the blades for detailed shaping or hold them at the ends for maximum reach and cutting power.
Built for Precision and Comfort
The 175mm blades are forged from premium Izumo Yasugi steel, renowned for its exceptional edge retention and durability. Consequently, the blades stay sharper for longer while delivering smooth, clean cuts with minimal effort.
In addition, Okatsune hardens the steel to 60–61 HRC, creating the ideal balance between hardness and flexibility. Therefore, the cutting blade remains perfectly aligned with the counter blade, even after years of intensive use.
Comfortable to Use All Day
The Japanese white oak handles naturally absorb vibration, making the shears comfortable to use during extended pruning sessions. At the same time, the lightweight, well-balanced design reduces fatigue without sacrificing cutting power.
Whether you’re trimming formal hedges, maintaining topiary, or shaping ornamental shrubs, the Okatsune 214 provides outstanding control and precision.
Designed for Professional Results
The wide-neck design makes these hedge shears incredibly versatile. Use the full handle length when trimming larger hedges, or choke up on the handles for greater accuracy around delicate plants and detailed shapes.
As a result, one pair of shears can tackle both broad trimming and fine finishing work with ease.
