The extended 18\" length provides ample reach to tackle thicker branches from a safe stance, while the 13.5\" blade delivers decisive cuts without excessive strain. A stacked leather handle offers a traditional, tacky-free grip that reduces slippage and vibration during extended use. Spring steel ensures the blade maintains an edge under demanding workloads, which translates to fewer sharpening sessions and more time working. This tool is well-suited for professionals such as landscapers, arborists, and carpenters, as well as serious hobbyists who regularly engage in pruning, trimming, or light woodcraft. Its durable construction and classic design differentiate it from lighter, less robust alternatives, delivering reliable performance across seasons and tasks. Practical tips: use with controlled strokes for precision shaping, keep the blade clean and lightly oiled to prevent rust, and maintain the edge with regular sharpening to preserve cutting efficiency.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BR Rinaldi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52094593433894,"sku":"BRR102N5","price":57.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0859\/9211\/2422\/files\/BRR102N5.jpg?v=1771702147","url":"https:\/\/blackcountryoutdoor.com\/products\/rugged-br-rinaldi-bergamo-half-wide-billhook-102n5-18-inch-overall-spring-steel-blade-leather-handle-for-woodcutters","provider":"Black Country Outdoor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
