Overview
Hickok 32A is a long-handled bypass lopper for tree trimming, with a forged blade and lightweight aluminum handles. Professional landscapers and tree maintenance crews are the intended users.
Reach and leverage drive this tool: long handles reduce fatigue over a full job, and a forged blade is built for durability. It is made for professional work, so a casual gardener with a few shrubs may not need its size.
Who it's for
Professional landscapers and homeowners with large trees who prune thick, high branches. Anyone working in tight beds, or cutting past the listed width, should choose a different tool.
Pros and cons
- Long aluminum handles add reach
- Forged blade built for durability
- Lightweight handles reduce fatigue
- Made in USA per the title
- Warranty terms not listed
- Long handles awkward in tight spaces
- Grip material not described
Performance notes
Long handles raise the leverage at the blade, so thick branches take less hand force, and aluminum limits the weight carried at arm's length. The forged alloy steel is chosen to resist wear from repeated heavy cuts, and the bypass action passes the blade beside the lower jaw.
