As far as I've seen it, this is a great price for one of the most user friendly garden tools out there.
I own a couple of the Fiskars range and they are all light and the mechanism they use makes it really quite easy to cut branches compared with any other loppers I've owned.

To get an idea of how the increased leverage works a.k.a. PowerStep see here:

This model is an anvil lopper, suited for hard or dry wood (Fiskars website)

Hopefully this is useful for any other gardeners out there.
I can't find it anywhere near this price elsewhere.

Edit: I should also add that these come with a 25 year warranty

    Fiskars is a great brand, I have a few of their products and have been very happy with them given the amount of abuse I've inflicted on them.
    This is an awesome price too!

    • cwongtech on 20/01/2012 - 13:30

      Fiskas also owns Gerber I believe.

      • Zero on 20/01/2012 - 13:35

        I've suspected that for a while now so I think you're right there. Among other things, the hatches and axes are almost identical.

          I agree. I've got a Fiskars weed removing device and it works a treat. No longer do you need to get down on all 4's to remove weeds.

    I have a pair of their bypass secateurs for a number of years now, never happy with it (easily jammed, lock drops on, blade edge not great). My old Gardena was much better, thinking of upgrading to Felco. That said, I believe these loppers are good, never used before but have extensively used the Fiskars telescopic pole lopper & it's great.

  • nookular on 20/01/2012 - 12:00

    Save $30% ???

    Either way, it seems like a good price

  • BotanicGarden on 20/01/2012 - 13:42

    Awesome deal, it cuts through branches quite easily once it is cranked to third gear.

    +1 for BigW, came back from lunch and they shipped mine already O_O
    Speed service! No wonder why they're pwning Kmart/Target atm

  • pepsilid on 20/01/2012 - 14:53

    Price match it at Bunnings :)

    • knackers on 20/01/2012 - 17:04

      did they offer you a further 10% off

      • pepsilid on 20/01/2012 - 18:59

        I work at bunnings, and they would :) If its the exact same product, they have to price match internet deals too

        • Zero on 20/01/2012 - 19:09

          That's really good to know, thanks. Is that Australian sites only?

        • pepsilid on 20/01/2012 - 20:46

          I think it is all sites across the board- but the postage has to be included in the price match. We got an email about it the other day from top management.

  • mick123 on 20/01/2012 - 15:33

    I really really want to get one… but I only have 1, fairly large tree on my property…
    Dont know if I would ever use it..

  • AncientWisdom on 20/01/2012 - 15:54

    Thanks, grabbed one.

  • Tenebrae on 20/01/2012 - 16:34

    Bought one for dad, thanks!

  • xit on 20/01/2012 - 17:16

  • No on 20/01/2012 - 18:48

    Thanks OP. I selected leave at side gate, does anyone know if the driver will actually do this?

    Thanks for the heads up on this one, My Uncle will be glad when it arrives and I give his 'borrowed' one back.

  • cheapsk8 on 21/01/2012 - 04:13

    "Currently unavailable online and in store."

  • Bystander on 21/01/2012 - 09:47

    "for hard or dry wood"
    ??? But wouldn't you use it to cut branches on trees that are green and not dry? Or is it supposed to be used for dead wood?

    • StewBalls on 21/01/2012 - 10:16

      You might want to lop dead branches on live trees so they don't snap off in the breeze & drop on your head when you least expect it.

  • raphy on 21/01/2012 - 10:16

    At this price I'm almost buying it even though I don't have a garden. Might have one one day though :p

    • StewBalls on 21/01/2012 - 10:18

      If you ever decide to join the Yakuza then this would also help with lopping off the fingers of incompetent underlings! ;)

        Wrong model Dude. Apparently you want the "bypass lopper with hook head is suitable for heavy cutting of fresh" fingers.

  • rehab on 21/01/2012 - 18:26

    Ordered one but have no reply yet from Big W and Paypal was not debited. Ordered when they were still in stock. Should I expect the worst?

    • otherPerson on 23/01/2012 - 09:26

      Yes, you should. Same happened to me. I tried it 4 times, and not once did Big W take the money. I contacted them, they rang back and said "the paypal method doesn't work sometimes. Just keep trying until it does."

      By the time I got round to it again (as I was out at the time), the deal had expired. No Fiskars for me…. or you.

      • rehab on 23/01/2012 - 13:12

        As luck has it I had given up on it, but lo and behold, mid morning got an email from Big W stating they shipped it today!

  • browser on 24/01/2012 - 20:24

    Ordered on Friday and got it today, looks like good quality, made in Finland for a change.
