Bonsai Root Cutter – Large Size (270mm) | Precision Carbon Steel Tool for Roots, Deadwood & Small Trunks
This bonsai root cutter is specifically designed for cutting and pruning roots during transplanting and re-potting. Unlike knob cutters with spherical heads, its wide, straight carbon steel blades are stronger for denser root fibers. The contoured head provides added clearance, making every cut precise and effortless.
The cutter’s shape also excels at working with deadwood and harder wood, allowing angled cuts with ease. It can also serve as a smaller trunk splitter, making it versatile for bonsai shaping and care. Measuring approximately 270mm in overall length, this large cutter is perfect for medium and large bonsai trees in Canada. It comes with a tool pouch for safe storage.
Proper care ensures your carbon steel root cutter lasts a lifetime:
Sterilize after each use to prevent disease.
Oil moving parts for smooth, precise cuts.
Wipe clean with a cloth to remove sap and debris.
Store in a pouch, roll, or bag to protect from moisture and damage.
Keep your bonsai root cutter sharp, clean, and ready for every pruning or transplanting session.

"Passion is the biggest determinant of a grower's success"
Bonsai was a passion, which was sparked at a very young age of 12, when I used to go out with my uncle to collect specimens. The beauty of the trees sitting in their pots, small yet majestic grew over me through the years and completely engulfed me in their magnificence. Having lived in different continents and countries, I have owned numerous bonsais over the years and always have had this unsatisfied hunger for more.
I am a Botanist and a certified Horticulturist. I have been living my dream with plants for the last 25 years. Having now settled down in Alberta, the love affair with the “tree in the pot” continues.....
