WORX 20V Cordless Grass Shear & Shrub Trimmer WG801.9 — 4"/8" Dual-Blade, Lightweight One-Handed Control

The WORX 20V Cordless Grass Shear & Shrub Trimmer (WG801.9) is a lightweight, dual-blade electric tool that converts between a 4" grass shear and an 8" shrub trimmer for fast touch-ups and detailed pruning.

Designed for quick maintenance tasks and precision edging, this compact WORX tool is made to replace the hassle of dragging out a full-size hedge trimmer for small jobs. Weighing about 2 lbs and built for WORX PowerShare batteries (sold separately), it gives you nimble control for trimming around flower beds, shaping small hedges, and maintaining lawn edges with minimal setup.

How does the WG801.9 make small trimming jobs easier?

The tool’s light weight and simple two-blade system let you reach tight spots and do quick corrections without fatigue. Dual-action blades cut with a slicing motion for cleaner cuts, while the over-mold handle helps steady the tool during longer sessions.

• Only ~2 lbs for easy one-hand use and maneuvering.
• Quick-change blades switch between grass and shrub cutting.
• Dual-action blades help reduce tearing and improve cut quality.
• Soft-grip handle absorbs vibration for more comfortable trimming.

What cutting capacity and performance can I expect?

The WG801.9 provides enough power and reach to handle light-to-medium yard maintenance tasks. With a no-load blade speed around 1,100 strokes per minute and a maximum cut thickness near 5/16", it’s optimized for detail work rather than heavy woody branches.

• 4" shear blade for grass edges and fine detail work.
• 8" shrubber blade for small hedges and shaping shrubs.
• Max cut capacity approximately 5/16" for stems and twigs.
• 1100 strokes/min no-load speed for brisk trimming action.

How easy is it to switch blades and store the trimmer?

Changing blades is tool-free and designed to be straightforward so you can swap modes quickly. A protective sheath is included to keep blades safe during storage and transport, which helps lengthen blade life between sharpenings.

• Flip, press the release, slide off the faceplate — no tools needed.
• Sheath guard protects cutting edges when the tool is not in use.
• Compact footprint makes it easy to tuck in a garage or shed.
• Detachable blades allow storage without the full tool assembly protruding.

Do I need to buy a battery and who should consider PowerShare?

This WG801.9 is sold as a tool-only model, so it requires a WORX 20V PowerShare battery (sold separately) to run. If you already own other PowerShare tools, you can share batteries across devices to reduce cost and clutter.

• Battery and charger not included — compatible with WORX 20V PowerShare batteries.
• Ideal for households that already own PowerShare batteries and chargers.
• PowerShare platform supports many WORX tools to maximize battery value.
• Buying tool-only keeps upfront cost lower if you already have batteries.

Who is this for? The WORX WG801.9 fits homeowners, renters, and garden hobbyists who need a compact, easy-to-handle trimmer for routine touch-ups, edging, and shaping small hedges. It’s best for users who value convenience, want to avoid heavy equipment for light jobs, and either already participate in the WORX PowerShare ecosystem or plan to purchase a compatible 20V battery separately.
