Okatsune 230 Hedge Shears

The Okatsune 230 Hedge Shears are built for scale, reach, and speed — a professional-grade pair designed to handle tall hedges and large surface areas with ease. With 500 mm Japanese oak handles and 200 mm razor-sharp blades, they make light work of wide or high trimming jobs without the need for constant repositioning.

Hand-forged in Japan from Izumo Yasugi steel — the same high-carbon steel used in traditional Katana blades — the Okatsune 230 delivers the clean, effortless cut expected from this trusted brand. Available from Suffolk Mowers with full UK support and lifetime warranty, these shears are made for professionals and serious gardeners who want maximum efficiency and precision.

Professional Reach and Performance with the Okatsune 230 Hedge Shears

The Okatsune 230 hedge shears are the tool of choice for gardeners who need to cover more ground with every stroke. Designed with long 500 mm handles and extended 200 mm blades, they provide the extra reach and cutting area needed for tall hedges, deep shrubs, and large-scale maintenance work. Despite their size, they remain perfectly balanced and comfortable to use throughout the day.

Long Blades for Faster, Cleaner Cutting

The 200 mm blades are forged from Izumo Yasugi high-carbon steel, known for its sharpness and edge retention. Each cut glides through fresh or woody hedge growth without tearing, leaving a smooth finish that helps plants recover quickly. The longer blades allow you to trim larger areas in fewer strokes, improving efficiency without sacrificing control.

Extended Reach Without Fatigue

With a total length of 780 mm, the Okatsune 230 gives you up to 2.5 metres of working reach, reducing the need for ladders or bending. The 500 mm oak handles offer excellent leverage and absorb shock naturally, keeping trimming sessions smooth and controlled even during extended use.

Precision and Durability

Every component reflects Okatsune’s focus on simplicity and reliability. The smooth single-pivot action and durable oak handles are built for years of hard use. With minimal moving parts, maintenance is quick — a clean, oil, and occasional sharpen with an Okatsune whetstone will keep them performing like new.

Lifetime Warranty for Complete Confidence

When purchased through Suffolk Mowers, the Okatsune 230 Hedge Shears include a lifetime warranty. If a manufacturing fault ever arises, they’ll be repaired or replaced free of charge. Okatsune tools are built to last decades, and this warranty reflects that commitment to enduring quality.
