The small Wilkinson Garden and Flower Shears feature specially designed blades to cut through stubborn undergrowth. The handles allow for maximum leverage and a serrated blade provides extra grip when cutting through thick stems and vines.

Originally, these shears were commissioned by the Post Office to cut through mailbag binders. But they are also the ideal shears for flower arranging and ikebana.

The secateurs are hot-forged and handmade by craftsmen using traditional techniques handed down for centuries. Wilkinson black secateurs are fully Teflon-coated to prolong life and prevent corrosion, meaning they are built to last through endless seasons in the garden.

Each pair of scissors comes in a William Whiteley gift box.
