Excellent value and performance
By Comdet
I was somewhat skeptical that a lopper could handle a 3 inch branch - that's usually something that I would use a hand saw for. But this lopper actually comes through! It's the first lopper I've used with a ratcheting head which took me some time to get used to. You open the handles wide and the head snaps fully open. You then repeatedly open and close the handles and the jaws ratchets shut until the branch is cut. While this may seem to entail a bit more work, it's much easier on the arms and shoulders since you're cutting only a portion of the branch with every stroke. The head locks in the closed position for secure storage.The extendable handles work well, and have a click stop every few inches. No problems with the handles extending or retracting unexpectedly.The head is an anvil type head, so it's best used on dead wood since the anvil crushes the limb when cutting. Live wood is best cut with a bypass lopper so there's a clean edge.I use this mainly to chop up cut branches into manageable lengths. Makes quick work of the process. Good build quality - hoping for many years of use.

Very good value
By Morley Dotes
This a very good tool and cuts very nicely. I agree that it does a nice job cutting, however, I give it 4 stars because the handles are a bit weak looking and flex easily when trying to cut live branches that approach 3 inches, and I am afraid I will snap the handle if I put too much pressure. That happens when the handles are fully extended or not...so 4 stars. With that said, it works as advertised. It can be locked closed. Be careful and it should get the job done relatively easily. I just wish the handles were sturdier.

Ratchet Driven, Extendable Anvil Loppers
By R. Jackson
My dad used to tell me "When all you've got is a hammer.....everything looks like a nail". This set of loppers has much the same effect.....you start SEARCHING for things to prune ! I carry them on my tractor, and with the extendable handles, can reach high limbs very comfortably. The ease of a ratchet-assisted cut, along with the capacity to prune large (I've cut many, exceeding 3 inches in diameter) limbs, has exceeded all of my expectations. A heavily made, well designed lopper. I probably will purchase another set, to keep on my utility vehicle.

I snapped the blade on this and was able to come up with a replacement. Now I need to know how to replace the darn blade. Any advise? Lots of bolts to loosen but not sure which ones I need to remove.
Help..I have the Trailblazer anvil ratchetlopper...Everything seems to work as normal except when it starts ratcheting on a limb it gets just info it and slips like a tooth somewhere is worn.l.The teeth all look fine..Maybe it is the little clicker that advances the jaws?? If so, what to do? Thanks..David
