Care Instructions
- Wipe the blades clean after each use to remove grass, sap, and moisture.
- Dry thoroughly before storing to help prevent rust.
- Apply a light coat of camellia oil or machine oil regularly to protect the high-carbon steel blades.
- Store in a dry place away from humidity and moisture.
- Keep the blades sharp for optimum cutting performance.
- Avoid cutting wire, hard branches, or other materials not intended for grass shears.
- The wooden handle may naturally develop character with use. Avoid prolonged exposure to water.
- Handle with care and keep out of reach of children.
Please Note
- High-carbon steel provides exceptional sharpness and edge retention but may develop rust if left wet.
- Regular cleaning and oiling are recommended to maintain performance and appearance.
