When you are cutting your bonsai tree, the best tool to use is a pair of bonsai shears. These are designed to cut the stems of your tree with precision. Unlike ordinary scissors, bonsai shears have blades made from high carbon steel. This ensures that they are less likely to become blunt and will provide years of service. Moreover, their slim shape allows you to use your whole hand, reducing the amount of pressure on your finger.
In addition to bonsai shears, there are other tools you can use. Some of them are useful for pruning, while others are better suited for cutting the branches of certain types of trees. Bud Shears are useful for pruning trees with dense, fine foliage. They are thinner than other types of bonsai shears, and they can fit into tight spaces in the tree. These can be used to cut between juniper needles, for example. Another popular tool is Satsuki shears, which are used for trimming azalea bonsai.
In addition to bonsai shears, you should also purchase a pair of scissors. These scissors come in different styles, and you should choose the one that best suits your needs. In general, you can use both hand and electric scissors. These tools make advanced techniques easier and allow you to achieve more interesting transformations.
