Stainless Steel Wire Cutter 180 mm
Stainless Steel Bonsai Wire Cutter
The Stainless Steel Bonsai Wire Cutter is a precision tool specifically designed for the safe and efficient removal of bonsai training wire without damaging bark, branches, or delicate growth. Unlike standard pliers or cutters, its compact head and angled cutting jaws allow close, controlled cuts directly against the wire.
This tool is essential during both training and refinement stages, ensuring wiring can be removed cleanly once the branch has set, without risking scarring or breakage.
Key Features & Benefits
- Short, angled cutting jaws designed for precise wire removal close to the branch
- Prevents bark damage by cutting wire cleanly rather than unwinding it
- Precision-ground stainless steel blades for sharp, reliable cuts and corrosion resistance
- High leverage design allows effortless cutting of aluminium and copper bonsai wire
- Compact head for access in tight areas and dense branching
Why Use a Bonsai Wire Cutter?
Removing bonsai wire correctly is just as important as applying it. Unwinding wire can easily tear bark or snap branches, especially on older or more brittle trees. A dedicated wire cutter allows the wire to be cut into short sections, making removal safe and controlled.
This ensures the health of the tree is preserved while maintaining the clean lines achieved through wiring.
Wire Cutter vs Standard Cutters
- Bonsai wire cutters are designed for close, flush cuts without damaging bark
- Standard pliers or side cutters are bulky and increase the risk of slipping or crushing branches
A purpose-built wire cutter offers superior control, accuracy, and safety when working on valuable bonsai material.
Ideal For
- Removing aluminium and copper bonsai wire
