I have an older Fiskars lopper that looks much like this one

Unfortunately years of cutting things that shouldn't have been cut by
it caused knicks in the cutting jaw so it was time for a new one,
preferably longer handle too.

I went to Harbor Freight since I had a coupon and bought something
similar to this http://hfreviews.com/item.php?id=670 What a complete
piece of junk it was! You would think with extendable handles and a
ratcheting head it could cut branches better but it absolutely sucked
so I went back to the worn out chipped Fiskars.

Back to the Fiskars brand and now I have one like this

I just had a handle break on a Fiskars lopper. I took a picture,
e-mailed it to them and they are sending me a new pair for free.,
These things have a lifetime warranty.

I've had a few companies do similar things. I had an Ames hose reel
that started leaking at the bearings. Went on their site to order
parts and there weren't any prices. They were free, including
shipping. Same deal with Irwin clamps (and I just lost those pieces).
