Abstract

A pruner employs dual lubricating fasteners as pivots. Each pivot has a head, and a shank which is provided with a lubricant cell and plural channels. The lubricant cell is in communication with the exterior of the shank area, the channels enabling the lubricant contained in the lubricant cell to lubricant the two blades. The lubricant cell includes a depressed oiling region for containing oil therein during re-lubrication. The shank has outer threads to mesh with inner threads of the nut. An anvil portion is provided in a material less likely to dull the blade portion. Extensible handles are providing, having lock member with square or rectangular lock iron for improved operation. A ratchet spring configuration provides ease of replacement of the spring.
