Overview
Extending from a compact length to a long reach, this Corona lopper pairs fiberglass handles with a coated high-carbon steel bypass blade. A four-bar compound linkage multiplies leverage, and a slant-ground hook has a sap groove.
Adjustable length gives extra reach for higher limbs and control for close work. The listing states two different cut capacities, and the hardware that locks the handles is not described.
Who it's for
Fruit trees, ornamental shrubs and overgrown limbs call for the long reach and the compound action. People cutting very thick wood should step up to a saw.
Pros and cons
- Handles extend for added reach
- Compound action multiplies leverage
- Resharpenable non-stick coated blade
- Foam grips on fiberglass handles
- Cut capacity stated two ways
- Extension lock design not described
- Heavier than a fixed short lopper
Performance notes
The four-bar linkage multiplies hand force at the blade, and longer handles add leverage and reach but also extra swing weight. Shorter settings give more control for fine shaping, and a sap groove helps the hook stay clean.
