Where precision meets passion

For years, ARS has been the benchmark in exclusive, high-quality garden tools – trusted by professionals and discerning enthusiasts alike. Every ARS product blends power, finesse, and purposeful design into a tool of perfection.

Which size pruner is right for you?

A pruner that fits your hand well makes cutting easier, safer, and more precise. To find your ideal size, simply measure your hand. Then compare your measurement to the size guide on the left. Not sure between two sizes? Choose the smaller one for better control and comfort.

Squeeze to unlock

This pruner features a smart safety lock: just squeeze to start, and lock it again easily with one hand. It won’t lock or unlock by accident – keeping you and your tool safe.

Freedom for your hands

The ARS VS pruner with rotating handle is designed for maximum comfort and control. Its ergonomic shape and rotating grip follow the natural motion of your hand, reducing fatigue and improving efficiency. Ideal for extended use — and especially beneficial for those with arthritis or sensitive joints.

*Applicable to the 7/8/9XR

Plenty of parts, built to last

Need a new spring or blade? No worries. The VS series pruners have a full range of spare parts available, making it easy to keep your tool in top condition for years to come. It’s a smart, sustainable choice – and replacing parts is quick and simple to do yourself.

Tested and approved by KWF

The KWF seal of approval is awarded by the Kuratorium für Waldarbeit und Forsttechnik e.V., a German organization that evaluates forestry tools and technologies. This certification confirms that a product meets high standards in efficiency, occupational safety, ergonomics, and environmental friendliness, making it a key indicator of quality and reliability in the forestry sector.

25 years guarantee

At ARS, we believe true quality starts with craftsmanship and ends with trust. That’s why we offer an exceptional 25-year warranty against manufacturing defects on nearly all our pruning shears and saws. No fine print, no vague promises – just the assurance that your tool is built to last for decades.

Why go for a VS pruner?

The ARS VS-XZ (fixed handle) and VS-XR (rotating handle) come in three sizes for a perfect fit. Their ergonomic design reduces hand strain, and the ultra-sharp blades stay sharp for clean, precise cuts – again and again.
