Niwaki Mini Shears

This small but powerful hedge trimmer is my personal favorite for all precision work in the garden. What I particularly like about it is the perfect balance between maneuverability and stability. It really shows its strengths in tricky areas where large shears simply cannot reach. Whether you’re creating artistic boxwood balls, precise lawn edges, or carefully trimming delicate shoots, these shears make every cut a breeze. They’re small enough for delicate work and strong enough for everyday use—exactly how I imagine a garden tool should be.
