KUDO Type B Secateurs 200mm are expertly handcrafted in the experienced blacksmith workshop of KUDO Shears. This style is the standard type in Japan and features a clam-shaped blade that easily cuts branches up to 18mm thick. The secateurs come with a spare spring, and is presented in a gift box.
The Kudo family has been running KUDO Shears for 80 years, inheriting regional blacksmithing techniques that have been around for 660 years in Yamagata Prefecture. Kudo-san Snr has crafted highly durable secateurs for 55 years, garnering multiple awards in the process. His secateurs are loved by garden professionals, orchard workers, and flower growers. Moreover, his son is working with him to carry on the workshop in the future.
If your secateurs are left wet, or exposed to water then rust may develop. We advise that you wipe down your secateurs and spray with a lubricant such as WD40 or INOX at the end of each day’s use and store in a pouch.

Shogun Tools was founded in 2017 in Brisbane by Maki from Tokyo with support from her husband, Alex, a horticulturist and garden maintenance business owner. Maki's family had a passion for gardening, and she and Alex searched for high quality tools. Maki sourced info from professionals and Alex tested them for Australian use. Japanese blacksmiths (kaji) have long been revered for their precision blades and metalwork, but their industry has declined due to mass imports and a disposable culture. Shogun Tools support small businesses and artisans who create quality, long-lasting tools, preserving skills and traditions within Japan and beyond.
