Burgon & Ball Blade Sharpener

The Burgon & Ball Blade Sharpener is specifically designed to quickly and easily restore the edge of all sharp tools, such as Burgon & Ball shears.

The dormant period is the ideal time for pruning and shaping ornamental or fruit trees in the garden. To ensure clean cuts, use perfectly sharp tools. Do not wait until the cutting edge of the tools is too dull to sharpen them. A cut that is not clean damages the plant by leaving strips of bark or tissue, which are prone to the development of diseases or parasites. Only sharpen clean tools. To do this, wash them with clean water and then dry them to prevent rust.

Sharpeners are essential for maintaining the cutting edge. This ensures the quality of the cut and an optimisation of cutting effort. It also guarantees the longevity of the blades and counter-blades, and means you can keep leave longer intervals between sharpenings.

Often overlooked by gardeners, it is necessary to disinfect cutting tools as often as possible. To do this, use a cloth soaked in 90% alcohol. It destroys parasites, fungi or viruses that may have settled in a diseased plant.

This pocket sharpener with silicon carbide is so small and discreet that it easily fits in a pocket to travel everywhere you go!

Even though it comes with a 10-year guarantee, we recommend taking care of your sharpener and storing it away from the elements and sunlight.

Promesse de fleurs has chosen the English company Burgon & Ball for the quality of its materials and its nearly three centuries-old steel manufacturing methods. The company has been working with steel in Sheffield since 1730, initially with a patent for solid steel sheep shears. The production of garden shears and equipment quickly surpassed that of sheep shears, but the stainless-steel tools from Burgon & Ball are officially approved by the Royal Horticultural Society - probably the ultimate reward in the gardening industry.

The sharpener's housing contains a silicon carbide plate that can be rotated four times to extend its lifespan.
