As the sudden new owner of a tree removal and trimming service, your channel has already brought me such a great wealth of knowledge. You've pointed me in the direction of some great resources and as such, I am on my way to becoming ISA certified. Thank you so much for creating your channel.
I’m a huge fan of the bypass pruner. I like the corona one which is made of all metal except a rubber dipped handle. They have one with changeable blades now which is pretty useless. I also use a bastard file for sharpening them, along with my cane and corn knives. I can get it to shave hair with a filet, takes a bit of time, and usually don’t need it. Thanks for all the information you give us.
thank you so much for your videos. your information is so good and vital. one give me such an appreciation for my small formerly neglected camilla bushes that i now baby them and man o man do they bloom. i've sent a link to your videos to many friends.
Good sharpening tip, but you need to use a flat file (as you did). A “rat tail” file that you mentioned has a round cross section, and should not be used. Perhaps a slip of the tongue?
I sharpen (or hone) and oil every day. I wax my holster every week. Buy a proper 2 sided diamond plate as a file doesn't leave a good edge(it'll cost $15)

Thank you! Do you have any instructions on how to properly clean your garden tools?

As a landscaper there are a few tools I would add ,but overall you did a great job.

Japanese tools all day. I use sharpening stones as recommended by the Japanese tool makers. Steel files are not recommended.
Which Japanese brand do u recommend?!?
@@FixItWithMe I have Okatsune hedge shears and Tobisho sécateurs - the same ones Monty Don uses.

The Japanese folding saw I have cuts on the draw stoke.
