Okatsune 205-K Hedge Shears

The Okatsune 205-K Hedge Shears bring professional-grade precision and comfort together in one long-handled design. Featuring 500 mm Japanese oak handles, 175 mm razor-sharp blades, and an integrated rubber shock absorber, they’re made for gardeners who trim hedges and shrubs all day without feeling it in their joints.

Forged in Japan from Izumo Yasugi steel — renowned for its edge retention and clean cut — the Okatsune 205-K delivers power and finesse in equal measure. Available from Suffolk Mowers as a special-order item with a short lead time, these shears combine traditional Japanese craftsmanship with modern comfort for serious hedge work.

Comfort Meets Precision with the Okatsune 205-K Hedge Shears

The Okatsune 205-K hedge shears are built for professionals who demand both strength and comfort. Based on the popular 205 model, they add a rubber shock absorber that softens each cut, protecting wrists and elbows during long hedge trimming sessions. This subtle but effective addition makes a noticeable difference for those working daily on large or dense hedges.

Extended Reach for Tall and Deep Hedges

With an overall length of 760 mm and 500 mm oak handles, the Okatsune 205-K offers excellent reach. You can easily shape taller hedges or trim low sections without bending. The longer handles also allow you to reach deep into thick growth, keeping cuts level and consistent without straining your back.

Japanese Steel Blades for a Clean, Effortless Cut

The 175 mm blades are forged from Izumo Yasugi high-carbon steel — the same material used for traditional Japanese swords. Each cut is clean and precise, leaving smooth edges that promote healthy regrowth. The blades retain their sharpness for long periods, even with regular use on woody shrubs such as hornbeam, pyracantha, and laurel.

Built for Long Hours of Work

The integrated rubber shock absorber is what sets the 205-K apart. It absorbs impact at the end of each stroke, reducing the jolt that normally travels up through the arms. This protects joints, reduces fatigue, and keeps you comfortable during extended hedge work — ideal for professional gardeners and landscape teams.
