Bonsai Tools - Quality & Price.

[Orion]

Does anyone know a shop or an online store selling good quality bonsai tools at reasonable prices? Please recommend some

Ive been in his site ledante or something like that. his tools are a bit epensive probly because of shipping prices...

Shipping will do it, but I have a branch cutter and shears from him. Great tools, stand up to the thrashing I deal out. Remember shipping is going to be the killer for you.

You have to compare apples with apples. If you want quality "buy once" tools - then compare the same brand between 2 sellers.

Good luck.

Great point Leigh, cheap and quality don't usually go together. Have one or the other, or find a balance of the two!

Buy the quality because cheap will let you down.

Again you asked a question which was answered. You can have quality tools. Or cheap not both.

JMHO cheers Pup

Edit
25 years ago I bought a pair of scissors for the excessively expensive price of $38-00, Japanese made Kaneshin.
Bloody idiot I was told by one guy who payed just,
$ 20-00, for his, in the 25 years since he has had 10 (ten ) pairs of scissors still buys cheap shari. $ 200-00 will buy you at least two good tools with change.
