CLW Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Hello, I'm looking for a source or store in Bangkok that has Felco pruning shears in the hope they are less expensive than in Europe. My dad asked me to buy some for him. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuijimmy Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 You can find the "knock off" kind easily enough.... Tesco, Big C and hardware stores.... around 300 baht or so.... I doubt your find the real McCoy here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CLW Posted June 22, 2016 Author Share Posted June 22, 2016 Thanks for all the replies. For 1700 Baht I can buy at home. I'll stick to a Solo shear and give it a try. Not a big loss of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drtreelove Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Felcos are sweet for ease of cutting, but I do a lot of fine pruning and the anvil side is too thick, preventing me from getting in close on a tight crotch. I've used a Japanese made shears for years, really good hand forged steel, slim and oh so sharp, or for every day work a simple $20 Corona shears.
