[6 Blades Enhanced] NAYE 2 in 1 Garden Grafting Tool Kit for Fruit Trees with Grafting Knife Grafting Tapes,Extra Replacement Blades Included,Professional Grafting Scissor Shear

I;m not seeing this in my product list for some reason. That doesn't happen often. To the point, this is super handy in the garden. I like the fairly durable carrying kit and the selection of tools. Excellent product. Handles peppers, squash, pruning tomatoes and fruit trees. Very handy. Much easier to use than carrying around a heavy toolbox. It took some effort to find it and write the review. Good prodct. Full 5 stars. Would order again. That means I highly recommend it, if u can find it

I used this to graft apples this year - my first grafting experience. Most of my grafts took - it was beyond what I expected given my lack of experience and some obvious mistakes on my part. The knife is helpful around the garden in general. Experiment with the tapes to find the ones that work best for your application - I went through all of them before I found the one that worked best.

My husband is very happy with the grafting knife. Beats using an Exacto knife. But he didn't like the grafting tape. Says it's more like using plastic wrap. Still, the kit is a good deal, as he can keep everything together in one place.

This grafting tool made grafting prunings from one tree to root stock suckers from a "dead" tree stump easy and successful. The tool makes precision matching cuts that help align and hold the graft to the host like two puzzle pieces. The kit comes with several wrapping tapes of different thicknesses and stretch. We pruned from a "Good" tree in February, harvesting scion wood which we kept sealed and refrigerated until April when we grafted them onto root suckers coming up from a "dead" tree that had been cut to a stump. The suckers were the same diameter as the scion wood. The grafts took with a decent success rate of 60%. We will ultimately keep just the most vigorous of the new grafts to shape into a replacement tree, but were impressed by how well this kit worked. Prior attempts to free hand graft resulted in much poorer results.

The NAYE 2-in-1 Grafting Tool Kit has a good knife and useful tapes, but the grafting scissor shear is disappointing. It requires too much force to cut, even on thin branches. The blades feel dull from the start and often crush or tear instead of making clean cuts. Sharpening helps a bit, but it’s still hard work. The kit is okay for casual use, but the shear keeps it from being great.

I gave a 5 star rating, but on root stock or scoinwood if it is two thick about the thickness of a straw it only cuts one side. But I think it depends on moisture in the wood. On some of them it cuts through. I rubbed my finger across the blade and my finger nail, I did not get cut and my finger nail was okay, but I think it would be another story if someone put pressure from the handle down on my finger. I have not done this yet, but I think after each cutting the blade should be wiped off to get rid of residue from each cutting. So far this has saved me a lot of time, and I'm happy I got it. I have one more thing I will try on the root stock, If it looks a little thick, I'm going to cut a short slice in the middle and then use the tool to graft it. I think by doing this it will give the tool more power. I think with any moister in the wood this will help. I will update if this helps, but for now I'm happy I have this tool, and it comes with a lot of extras.

Great

First time using my grafting kit, sturdy and strong... I cleaned and disinfected my scissors and put it away in its case.... When I went to use it for the second time it was already getting rusty, the poor quality metal doesn't deserve 5 stars I'd think a tool like this would be stainless steel, had to use some sand paper to sand away the rust and some WD40 I'll cover blade with some petroleum to avoid more rust accumulation
