I'm wondering what professionals think of Fiskars. I've been fairly impressed with the tools of theirs I've used. When I helped Mike with some dogwoods, he brought Fiskars loppers. I look at them, and think "Oh, loppers. Probably be easier just to break them by hand", but they worked really well. They cut easily, and were nice to use. The polesaw I have, and Mike's updated version seem nice, and fairly robust. Maybe not quite pro quality, but put together well, and easy to use(with the caveat that I have a replacement blade from Korea. Mine didn't come with a saw blade).
Is Fiskars worth directing purchases to for prosumer use, or are the typical professional tools worth the added cost, even if they won't be going out every day, and being beaten on by random employees?
