Review on Grafting Gardening Knife For Budding Pruning With Grafting Tape And Plant Labels/Tree Tags by Bob Larson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Wanted this to work but not all wishes come true

I'm new to grafting and so was happy to find a "complete" package. However, there were real problems. The knife looks great but is simply dull right out of the box. Maybe it could cut butter, maybe not. The "grafting tape" is just like a long thin strip of saran wrap. Parafilm tape is MUCH easier to use and conforms to the shape of the scion wood; this saran-ish tape tends to curl on itself and I fear will girdle the scion rather than stretching with it. I cannot recommend this product as shipped.
