Secateur recommendations

Hi, wondering if anyone can advise, I'm on the look out for a decent pair of secateurs (I have no gardening knowledge) for my mums birthday. Any recommendations that rent crazy expensive? Thanks!

Felco 2
no question

Felco are the best secateurs in the world - if you go round any big garden, their red handles will be sticking out of the pockets of all of the staff

They are expensive but they last for ever
my pairs are 25 and 30 years old and they will last as long as I will

Felco

Gardena are ok if you’re looking for a relatively cheap pair but felco are the bees knees.

Felco No 6 - great if you have small hands!

Okatsune. I had Felco ones for years that were a special gift from my MIL, so I didn't like to replace them even though I didn't find them very comfortable to use. I finally bought some Okatsune secateurs last year and they are fantastic. I find them much easier to use and more comfortable than my old Felco ones.

Okatsune for me and my small hands!
