Ignore the cowboy jokes, holsters are great. They keep tools close to hand, stop them ending up on the compost heap, and save your pockets.
Chunky 3.5mm leather with copper rivets and hand stitched with double ply waxed thread. Starts off clean and pale but soon matures to a nice dark rich tone. The standard holster holds all Niwaki Secateurs, Snips and Pro Snips, but other secateurs might not fit. These leather products can come with the odd scuff or natural blemish - that’s part of the material and in no way affects the quality.

Care & maintenance
We’re constantly finding new ways to become more sustainable, so we only select products that are built to last. We recommend that you use your weeding hoe correctly to extend its lifespan.
Use it correctly:
Japanese steel is hard and sharp, and can be more brittle than some people are used to - it will chip if abused
Do not cut wire, metal, stone, plastic or any other hard material (even bamboo fibres and some very hard woods, especially knots and burrs, can damage steel edges)
Do not twist or apply uneven pressure
Cut diagonally across branches (not straight across) so you cut along the fibres
Pay attention to our maximum cut dimensions, and don’t overdo it (shears are not loppers)
Use the base of the blades, not the tips, for heavier cuts
Keep it clean
Remove leaf resin, rust and gunk with a Crean Mate and water
Dry, wipe over with Camellia oil and store in a dry place

Holds all Niwaki snips and secateurs keeping them close to hand
Garden tree
Niwaki means garden tree. Not very exciting, but it implies far more than that. Japanese gardens are landscapes, microcosms of nature, and the trees are all shaped to fit into those landscapes - there’s an awful lot of artistry and cultural heritage in there too. .
Quality assured
Gardening is held in high-esteem in Japan, and the quality and thoughtful design of Niwaki secateurs, pruning saws, digging tools, shears etc reflect this. You won't be dissapointed.
Used by professionals
There's a reason why Niwaki tools are used extensively in the professional sector. These quality tools are reliable, durable and easy to maintain and service. Used correctly and cared for, these tools will last for decades.
