GR Pro Barracudas post holes These Japanese hakaribasami (leaf cutters)Barracuda clippers are a clever one handed tool, a bit like a cross between small hedging shears and large secateurs. Extremely useful for the detailed shaping and finessing of tight curves and angles involved in topiary and box hedging work. Unlike topiary clippers, barracudas are tough enough to cut through smaller woody growth so they are a perfect tool for renovating old boxwood or other shaped shrubs . Not as tough as a pair of secateurs though
