Small in size but big on performance, the Burgon & Ball RHS Pocket Pruner in Racing Green is a refined tool for precise cutting. Designed in collaboration with the Royal Horticultural Society, it delivers exceptional sharpness and control in a compact, elegant form.
The high-carbon steel blades are carefully tempered to hold a lasting edge, slicing cleanly through live stems and soft branches. The bypass mechanism ensures smooth, even cuts that promote healthy regrowth, reducing bruising and tearing. Whether you’re pruning herbs, shaping shrubs, or deadheading flowers, this pocket-sized pruner is built for accuracy.
The handles are finished in a classic racing green enamel that gives a subtle nod to British tradition while offering a firm, comfortable grip. The compact shape makes it easy to hold and manoeuvre, ideal for smaller hands or fine work around potted plants and containers. A simple safety catch locks the blades when not in use, keeping them secure in your pocket or tool bag.
Lightweight yet sturdy, this pruner is perfect for everyday garden maintenance. It fits neatly in your hand and feels balanced from the first snip. It’s the kind of tool you’ll reach for constantly, whether trimming back perennials, tidying herbs, or cutting fresh flowers for the house.
Endorsed by the RHS and made by Burgon & Ball, whose toolmaking heritage spans nearly three centuries, the Pocket Pruner combines traditional quality with modern precision. Built to last, easy to handle, and undeniably stylish, it’s a pleasure to use and a joy to own.
This is practical elegance; a small tool that feels reassuringly well-made and performs beautifully every time.
