An entry-level pruner for the hook strip
Simple, light and without a bolster, this is the pruner to place at the entry level of your range, where it draws first-time buyers. Hang it on a peg hook, in sixes or dozens, near the seed racks, so customers kitting out a new garden find it beside the essentials.
- Put a card on the hook: 'The gardener's serpette knife, with a 7 cm hooked blade and brown acacia handle'.
- Place a bolstered model one hook along, so customers can trade up if they wish.
- Add a small sharpener or a sheath on the next hook for an easy second sale.
- Restock heavily in late winter, when the pruning season begins.
