Double Spring Secateurs – KUDO Type A:
KUDO Type A Secateurs Double Spring 200mm are the newest release from the Japanese brand, responding to the needs of frequent secateurs users. Equipped with double springs, the blades open and close each time the tool is gripped. Thinner than the standard B blades, they slice through branches with a razor-like sharpness, easily snipping twigs and branches up to 18mm in diameter.
Each set of secateurs comes with a spare spring and is presented in a gift box. Perfect as a gift for a keen gardener.

About Shogun Tools:
Shogun Tools was founded in 2017 in Brisbane by Maki from Tokyo with support from her husband, Alex, a horticulturist and garden maintenance business owner. Maki’s family had a passion for gardening, and she and Alex searched for high quality tools. Maki sourced info from professionals and Alex tested them for Australian use. Japanese blacksmiths (kaji) have long been revered for their precision blades and metalwork, but their industry has declined due to mass imports and a disposable culture. Shogun Tools support small businesses and artisans who create quality, long-lasting tools, preserving skills and traditions within Japan and beyond.
