Husky, however, have a nifty line in tough but attractive garden tools.
These are all a blue colour,
not your normal orange. Perhaps
this is in line with Husqvarna's
colour-coding. Blue means heavy
duty, frequent or demanding use.

Purpose Pruning Shear.
I had a grape vine in my previous house, and pruning it was a
very relaxing job. Unfortunately the secateurs I bought were
the Shopping-Mall type, and they broke after one day.
I ended up wrapping some cloth around the handle just so I could
use them. We also had a nice little lemon tree, which we pruned
every year to above head-hight. We used a Wood-Working Saw
for that, and it made a terrible mess. The blade was far too long
to cut in the thick foliage of the tree, and you got scratches all
over your arms too.
