Its reinforced blade design is approximately 15% thicker than the preceding design specification, while the replaceable blade system helps extend the practical service life of the

LP450 provides significant pruning capability without the weight associated with many traditional long-handled loppers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis makes it particularly useful when pruning

pruning\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe combination of increased leverage, carbon tool steel, low overall weight and replaceable blade construction makes it a significantly

\u003cstrong\u003epower-assisted lopper\u003c\/strong\u003e intended for heavier pruning applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long is it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe LP450 measures approximately \u003cstrong\u003e400 mm overall\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the blade made from?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blade uses high-quality carbon tool
