Tool Used For Cutting Fronds In Hawaii DVD
Anyone know where to get one of those? Extended pole, has something equivalent to a corn husk knife...which I found at Tractor Supply Company for pruning fronds - works GREAT.
But I need to get something that lets me reach 20 feet high etc so I can stop lugging a ladder around. Regular pole pruners don't work - saw blade makes a mess and I can't find any blades without teeth. |

Re: Tool Used For Cutting Fronds In Hawaii DVD
Me, too (serrated knife, or "hook knife") taped to bamboo pole. 2 versions, one with hook each way, the "normal" way for green fronds, the upside down one for dead. This was in pre-BBTV days. Now I don't trim fronds any more, paranoid about spreading the virus.
