The Cadillac of pruning shears is the Swiss made FELCO. They are bypass with a replaceable cutting blade. Quite a few styles. Even for lefties. I have not seen them here in Hawaii. But you can get them on Ebay for $30 and up. Are they worth it? If you are serious they are. But get the leather holster too because they last a lifetime unless you lose them. I've had mine for 30 years and they have outlasted many pairs of Corona.
