Grafting Secateurs 220 mm with interchangeable blades in V, U, and Ω shapes — for profiling grafts

Grafting secateurs are a specialized tool that differs from a regular garden secateur by one key feature: it makes not a straight but a shaped cut of a certain form simultaneously on the rootstock and the scion, allowing the two parts of the graft to fit together mechanically like a puzzle, without additional manual trimming with a knife. The set includes interchangeable blades in three shapes — V, U, and Ω (omega) — each shape provides its type of connection, and the gardener chooses the appropriate one depending on the thickness of the shoot and the grafting technique. The precise shaped match of the cuts on the rootstock and scion critically affects the survival rate of the graft: the tighter and more accurately the cambial layers (the thin layer of living tissue under the bark where growth occurs) fit together, the higher the likelihood that the graft will take. Cutting with a regular straight secateur or knife requires more experience and a steady hand for precise matching; the shaped blade of this secateur reproduces the same cut shape every time, reducing the dependence of the result on individual skill. Frequently asked questions. Is the tool suitable for grafting thick branches of mature trees? The length of 220 mm and interchangeable blades are primarily designed for grafting one-year shoots and thin branches — for thick skeletal branches, grafting by bark with a regular knife is more commonly used. How often should the blades be changed? Blades are not changed due to wear with each grafting, but depending on the required cut shape for a specific technique — the actual frequency of replacement depends on how many different grafting forms the gardener practices in a season. The tool will be useful for both amateurs grafting a few trees on a private plot and nurseries where grafting is a regular operation in spring.
