Overview
Set of 2 Bonsai Tools Jin Pliers and Wire Cutters Length 21 cm Stainless Steel Handles with Grooves for Wiring and Creating Jin

The bonsai tool set is primarily designed for wiring and shaping trees. It includes jin pliers and wire cutters made from stainless steel without a surface coating, making them easy to clean and free from any coating that could wear off. Both tools are approximately 21 cm long and fit comfortably in hand while working in the crown. The handles have grooves on the outside to improve grip. This pair complements the basic tools of any grower who shapes trees with wire.

The jin pliers have narrow pointed jaws with a grooved inner surface. They are used for stripping bark and wood fibres while creating jins and shari, which are dry, bark-free parts of branches and trunks, and also for bending, tightening, and unwinding wire. The wire cutters have short rounded jaws that allow you to cut shaping wire as close to the branch as possible. When removing wire, you can cut it into pieces rather than unwinding it from the branch, thus reducing the risk of damaging the bark and young shoots.

Remove wire in a timely manner, before it begins to embed into the bark, and cut it into short sections. When creating jin, first make incisions in the bark and then gradually strip it off with the pliers. After use, wipe the tools clean of sap, dry them, and store them in a dry place. You can occasionally lubricate the joints with a drop of oil. Use the cutters only on shaping wire of appropriate thickness and do not cut harder materials with them to avoid damaging the blades. Conversely, the jin pliers are also useful for tightening the ends of wire that stick out from the branch after wiring. Both tools fit into a standard case or toolbox, keeping them handy for every repotting and shaping task.

This pair of bonsai pliers is a practical aid for both wiring and refining older trees. The jin pliers and stainless steel wire cutters cover tasks that ordinary garden scissors cannot handle. The length of around 21 cm and the grooved handles facilitate precise work in the crown. All-metal tools are easy to maintain and are suitable for both novice and experienced growers. This set is perfect for personal use or as a gift for bonsai enthusiasts.
