The first thing you need to know is what edging shears<\/a> actually are and how to differentiate them from lawn shears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lawn Shears<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Lawn shears are gardening products generally intended to deal with grass that grows too long in areas that trimmers and lawnmowers<\/a> might not be able to reach. The main difference between lawn shears and edging<\/a> shears is that while lawn shears are horizontal, edging shears are vertical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Edging Shears<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Edging shears<\/a> are made of two levers working in tandem around a pivot \u2013 a set of vertical shears similar to a pair of scissors. There are several different types of lawn edging shears; some contain carbon steel blades, while others, known as long-handled edging shears<\/a>, offer a better grip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choosing the right pair of shears for your lawn edges<\/a> will help you to get a better result. Just like lawn shears, you\u2019ll get a feel for what\u2019s best to trim your lawn edge the more you work with different kinds of grass shears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
