Which FELCO Secateurs should I buy? Most Popular Models 2, 6, 7 & 8

We've made this video to showcase some of the most popular Felco Secateurs available for purchase in the UK.
The Felco model 2, the model 8, the model 7 and the model 6. These felco secateurs are garden pruners that feature robust yet lightweight aluminium handles. They're made in Switzerland and have the iconic bright red handles.
The most popular pair we sell is the Felco 2. It has a cutting diameter of 25mm and weighs just 240g. It features a bypass cutting action which provides a clean cut, ideal for general purpose pruning. The combination of a spring and rubber shock absorber helps to protect you from wrist strain. This classic model hasn't changed all that much since inception in 1948.

The Felco Model 8 is a more ergonomic version of the model 2. Notice the angle of the blade and curvature of the handles. The downward angled blade reduces the need to turn your wrist when pruning and the handles offer a more secure grip that fits beautifully into your hand. This really helps with muscle fatigue when you're making lots of cuts.

If you're using secateurs professionally or just very frequently as a super keen gardener then you should consider the model 7. It’s virtually identical to the model 8 but has an ingenious rotating handle.
The Felco model 7’s special handle reduces the force required to make a cut by up to 30%. The revolving handle moves on its axis with you, distributing your efforts over all the muscles in your hand. We often recommend this model to our customers who suffer with arthritis.

The most popular pair for the smaller hand is the Felco model 6. The grip is much like the model 8 but it’s smaller and lighter, with a 20mm cutting diameter and weighing just 210g.

There is a massive difference in the performance and durability of secateurs that are available to buy in the UK.
Many brands and models that you find online look very similar to Felco but please don’t caught out. Always invest in a genuine pair of swiss made Felco secateurs like these.
You can find the full range available to purchase at www.worldoffelco.co.uk.
Thanks for watching.

The most versatile 310 is worthy of a mention . . . excellent for everything from light pruning, deadheading, trimming, flower arranging . . . the list is endless . . . . I have gifted several pairs over the years . . . always with overwhelming gratitude!!! I even have a "kitchen" pair . . . wouldn't be without them . . .

They are worth every penny, I’ve had my #2’s for over 35 years. Only replacing the blade once! My #7s are probably over 30 years old. Take care of them and they will last a lifetime!

Mine keep disappearing they’re so good! 🪄🎩

[@janicemitchell5783]

Thank you! A question - what is the purpose of the cog wheel on one side, with the opposing cogged screw, please?? Janice

[@worldoffelco]

Hi @janicemitchell5783 Thanks for your comment. The cog wheel sets the tension between the blades. Once you have tightened this to your desired tension, then you use the opposing cogged screw to fix this into place.

You can’t beat the Japanese when it comes to cutting tools.

More than just any secateur! [gulp]

[@bobbelsekwol]

So disappointed when I bought some Felcos. I accidentally threw them in the waste with the clippings. So disappointed. I bought some cheaper ones and they are, well, crap.

[@worldoffelco]

Although painful, there are some good deals available at the moment - www.worldoffelco.co.uk/categories/gift-packs

To have a Felco is a investment for centuries. My first 7 is from 1979 / 43 years and still perfect in her work. My model 6 was lost in the vineyard in the grape harvest time in October. I found her again in march, a little bit rusty but… some days covered in WD 40 liquid and she was new again. No pruning tool in the world is better…

[@luticpagan3549]

а я думал в марте нашли восьмую модель

[@kurtgrauer9769]

@@luticpagan3549 no, it was the small one, the Nr. 6 this is also a very fine one, good to handle and also good for precise smaller cuttings like cut the grapes 🍇 in summer in one half for premium Productions or doing finer smaller work on the plants. For my work, I use two Nr. 7 one the smaller one, the Nr. 6. for all workmen the garden, vineyard and around the year.
