Pros: It's a Felco
Cons: Rotating Handle may irritate your hand muscles.

| gardenerbob's Full Review: Felco Professional Model 7 and Left Handed Model 1... |
As a professional gardener, I have used Felco product for my entire career. For years, the Felco 2 was the leader in the world of hand pruners(secataurs, if you will).
Over the past few years, Felco has been adding to their offering with 'new and improved models'.
In my opinion, the Felco 7 (& 10) are not improvements at all.
The rotating handle seems to be the cause of a hand cramp that I never had, until I started using the Felco 7. I told another gardener and he a related similar experience and has since moved on to another model (one with a long handle, a Felco 13, if I recall).
I have since been using the Felco 8, which is a Felco 7 without the rotating handle, and have been completely satisfied.
Get a Felco 8 instead of this model.
