Hard point for faster deeper cuts. Great for general and end-of-season pruning; cuts 1" to 4" branches. Tooth design features a shortened "set" tooth every third position which broadens the cut to help prevent sticking and allows the other teeth to cut deeper and faster. Very aggressive on the pull stroke for strength and control. Long lasting hard point teeth stay sharp four times longer than fileable blades. 7 1/2" locking blade is replaceable and locks open and closed.
