Fiskars Grass Shears 5in Power-Lever — 5" Grass Clippers with Serrated Self-Sharpening Blades and Comfort Grip

These Fiskars 5" Power-Lever Grass Shears are handheld grass clippers that deliver precision cuts with reduced hand effort thanks to Power-Lever mechanics and serrated, self-sharpening blades.

Designed for trimming ornamental grasses, edging around beds and sidewalks, and shaping small plants, these clippers combine a lightweight aluminum build with leveraged cutting power to make repetitive pruning easier. Their cambered, precision-ground blades and Gator Blade serrations hold and slice grass cleanly, while a comfort-grip handle and safety lock improve control and storage. The tool replaces bulky electric alternatives for detailed manual work and is built for repeated outdoor use.

How do these shears reduce hand fatigue during long trimming sessions?

Power-Lever technology multiplies the force applied at the handles so you use less wrist and hand strength for each cut. The ergonomically shaped zinc die-cast handles with dual-layer comfort grips distribute pressure and improve grip during repetitive motions.

• Power-Lever action reduces cutting effort by about 50%.
• Dual-layer comfort grips cushion the hand and reduce slipping.
• Lightweight aluminum construction minimizes tool weight for extended use.

What makes the blades effective for precise grass and ornamental trimming?

The blades are made from cambered cutlery steel and are precision-ground to create a scissor-like cut that leaves edges neat. A self-sharpening radius edge combined with Gator Blade serrations increases bite and keeps the blades working efficiently even after frequent use.

• Cambered steel blades perform a clean scissors cut for tidy edges.
• Gator Blade serrations grip stems and help prevent slippage when cutting.
• Self-sharpening radius edge maintains cutting performance over time.

Can these shears handle more than just decorative grass?

Yes — while optimized for ornamental grasses, the robust serrated blades and levered action let you trim softer stems and small shoots around flower beds and garden edges. They are not designed for thick woody branches, but they excel at regular maintenance tasks where precision matters.

• Ideal for trimming ornamental and decorative grasses around hardscapes.
• Useful for light pruning of soft-stem plants and small shoots.
• Not intended for cutting thick or woody branches.

How do I care for and store the shears to keep them performing well?

Wipe blades clean after use to remove sap and debris, and occasionally apply a light oil to hinges to prevent rust and keep the lever mechanism smooth. Use the easy-open safety lock for transport and storage; keeping blades closed protects the edge and reduces risk of damage.

• Clean blades after each use and dry thoroughly to prevent corrosion.
• Lubricate pivot points periodically for smooth operation.
• Engage the safety lock when storing or carrying the tool.
