Hereof, are bypass pruners the same as secateurs?
There are two types of Felco secateurs (Felco pruners); anvil and bypass. Bypass secateurs encompass most of the range and are by far the most popular option. If you’re using secateurs with an anvil cutting action to perform the majority of your pruning in the garden, chances are that you’re using the wrong tool.

What is a bypass lopper used for?
Bypass Loppers.
These are the most commonly-used loppers, consisting of two blades that slide past each other like scissors. They typically provide the cleanest cut on live wood, allowing the plant to heal more quickly. However, they tend to get jammed when cutting dead, dry branches, which can bend the blade.
What is the difference between a lopper and a pruner?
Pruners are one-handed tools used for smaller branches and stems around half an inch or less in width. Loppers are two-handed tools that are used for medium-size branches and stems that are too big for hand pruners but are thinner than 1 to 1.5 inches. (For larger branches/stems use a pruning saw.)
Which is better anvil lopper or bypass lopper?
Bypass loppers provide the clean cut, and precision delicate, green growth needs to stay healthy. For dead or dying branches, vegetation you need to get removed quickly, and tough to cut stems- consider an anvil lopper to provide the cutting power to rapidly move through your task with relative ease.
Which is better bypass or anvil pruners?
An anvil cut is more powerful than a bypass cut with minimal effort required. Ideal for the powerful pruning of dead wood. Bypass cutting tools have two sharpened blades that pass over each other to make a clean and precise healthy cut in a scissor action.
