It's also handy to have on hand when harvesting vegetables or grafting trees in your garden! The rounded handle butt rests against the palm and provides several grip options. This is a large garden knife; look for the dimensions below. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to use a pruning knife: \u003c\/strong\u003eFirst, grasp the knife with the blade parallel to the branch, then, in a quick swiping motion, make your cut. Note that it is best not to use slicing motions when cutting; the curvature of the blade already does it. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTechnical aspects:  \u003c\/strong\u003eAll Old Bear® knives feature a locking mechanism that is consistently smooth and, most importantly, equally effective in locking the blade in both open and closed positions. Moreover, it is important to note that the blade can be locked or unlocked with a right-handed user's thumb finger. Contrary to one's first impression, the protuberant locking knob is not in the way and doesn't affect the usage of the highly ergonomic handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis knife features a hardened AISI 420 stainless steel blade.
