Today my favorite tool is the Fiskars PowerGear Loppers.

We get many downed branches on the property, and these loppers go through branches better than any other lopper I have owned. These were a gift from my folks (after my Dad tried to use my old loppers!) The power gear really allows me to cut through 2 inch limbs. I can make fairly precision cuts, too, for my land art. 😉 Here is a picture of the first land art installation, along with one of my other favorite tools: the Rubbermaid wheelbarrow.
