The cutting blade of this lopper slides past a counterblade in a scissor action hence the name bypass. The pivot bolt of the Bahco lopper is offset from the natural centre line of the tool. This unique design feature creates a slicing motion during cutting, which greatly assists the pruning of live wood and spreads the cut over a larger area of the blade for increased life.
