Shearing knives are used to shape and shear Christmas trees by cutting branches that extend beyond an imaginary cone drawn over the tree. This process helps maintain the tree’s taper and desired shape.
2. When should shearing of Christmas trees typically be started?
Shearing is usually started when trees are 4 to 5 feet high on spruce and fir and at 3 feet on pines. Shearing and shaping can be done with hand clippers or hedge shears, however, the most efficient for high volume trees, with some practice, is with a long-bladed shearing knife.
3. How does shearing lateral branches affect the appearance of a Christmas tree?
Shearing lateral branches will increase the fullness or density of the tree for a better appearance, in addition to shaping the tree.
4. What are the features of the Leonard shearing knife for gardening and landscaping?
Our Leonard shearing knife is lightweight for less fatigue and has a 16″ stainless steel blade which stays sharp. The stainless steel has a slightly elevated carbon content for quality heat treatment to provide a razor sharp edge. It comes with a 18″ riveted beech wood handle and a lifetime warranty.
