Will these cut small bushes and hedges (box woods)?

Yes, small ones. They are already charged, so be VERY careful when you take them out of their box to be charged. Do not touch the blades.

not really strong enough to do that some of the weeds when they get taller have to hang onto them to cut them

it seems to cut through surface weeds very well so i would think it should cut just about anything. this is a quality made tool.

If its a straight shaft style should work fine. I have a weed eater feather light works great cut through 1-1.5 inch branches. Kicks butt on those gator blades.

I've used it for small bushes. It works fine. Just try to keep it out of the real tiny limbs as this will sometimes knock the chain off.

yes,but it's just for heavy grass and small brush. I also ordered the two pack carbide blades for cutting small trees.

Yes, but you'll need carbide tipped blades. A power hand saw and diamond blade would be a better choice.

Well you could try it on small tree limbs but it will probably dull the blades faster. I used it to trim the branches on a big bush with some thicker limbs but I wouldn't do it all the time.

It should work however I would consider a gas powered tool like a weed eater with a brush blade depending on amount and size. This would work great for finger thick vines but smaller stuff would give and not cut as easy.

I'm not that familiar with arborvites, but when i googled it, the trees looked like shaped pointed decorative like trees? This saw will work best on fairly stiff branches. If your trees have small very flexible limbs, i'm afraid the teeth won't grip to cut.

Yes they will...and they actually do a really nice job at mulching up the grass. Should compliment your mulching kit nicely.

This unit is a string trimmer, so I doubt it would trim hedges as the string would just break off eveytime the string strikes the limbs of the bush. I recently purchashed a Black & Decker TR117 3.2-Amp Hedge Trimmer, 17-Inch just for the purpose of trimming hedges. I have not reviewed the trimmmer as yet because I have not had the opportunity to use it.

I like the 9" as they fit within the guard on my brushcutter but they do require more power than the marginally useless blades that came with the unit. They hold their sharpness fairly well when you hit stones while cutting small trees close to the ground, unlike a chain saw.

Haven't tried them on anything that big but they don't seem large enough to handle a branch that thick. They work very well on small, thin branches. We've used them on branches up to a 1/2 inch. I would use much larger pruners for a 1.5" thick branch.

Yes, with practice and a full battery, if it will open around the tree it will cut it, does really well with softwoods.

They are small like garden tools. They do not have long handles like a regular rake an shovel would.

Hi Leon, Yes, they are great for small snips like deadheading flowers. My wife uses them all the time in her flower garden. This is one of the great things about them that if you open the jaws slightly, like the size of a blossom stem, they do not engage the ratchet mechanism. And yet they can cut one inch branches. (That is pushing it a bit but I certainly have done many 1" branches.) The light weight makes them good for more delicate jobs as well. Thanks for asking! Paul Grimm

The snipper's are good, the small cutters are also good. But the long cutting tool is not, I have bushes that need to be cut back and it does a bad job, so I have to change and use the small cutter to get the job done. Very disappointed !
