Okatsune Hedge Shears

There’s a reason you see Okatsune shears in the hands of proper gardeners. Made in Japan from high-carbon Izumo Yasugi steel, they bite through growth cleanly and stay sharp for years. Whether you’re trimming box, shaping topiary or cutting long hedges, they just feel right — balanced, light and deadly sharp.

At Suffolk Mowers we stock the full Okatsune shear range, from short-handled models for precise shaping to long-reach versions for taller hedges. Every pair comes with Japanese white-oak handles, razor-sharp blades and a lifetime warranty on manufacturing faults.

About Okatsune Shears

Okatsune hedge shears are built for serious cutting, not show. The forged Japanese steel blades glide through growth instead of tearing it, and the white oak handles give a comfortable, solid grip. They’re light, well-balanced, and feel like an extension of your arms — exactly what you want when shaping hedges all day.

Choosing Your Shears

  • Short-handled (216 / 217 / 231) – ideal for topiary, box, and fine shaping where control matters most.
  • Medium-handled (204) – a versatile middle ground for general trimming and easy handling.
  • Long-handled (205 / 205-K / 214 / 230) – built for reach, speed, and tackling taller hedges without a ladder.

What Makes Them Stand Out

  • Razor-sharp Japanese steel blades that cut cleanly with minimal effort.
  • Hardwood white-oak handles that absorb shock and feel comfortable in use.
  • Simple, traditional design — no plastic, no gimmicks, just quality.
  • Available with wide-neck or shock-absorbing options for added comfort.
  • Lifetime warranty on virtually all models.

Who They’re For

  • Gardeners who care about neat hedges and tidy lines.
  • Professionals needing reliable tools that hold an edge all season.
  • Topiary specialists who value control and clean, precise cuts.

Support and Warranty

All Okatsune shears sold by Suffolk Mowers come with a lifetime warranty on manufacturing faults. We also stock spare parts, whetstones and holsters to keep your tools in top condition. With the right care, a pair of Okatsune shears will last for decades.
