Not sure I agree with Parker. The cutters that you use for bonsai have a rounded tip, and long handles with ver small beak, creates in a way to be able to reach inside a dense canopy, and avoid danading the bark. I have found cheapo pliers to be a lot harder to handle on trees.
As for a cheap set.. If you can not find these 3 for under 150K I think you are not looking in the right places. If I look at a regular dealer in the area, prices start at about 24E, say 30USD. I would say.. Quality depends on how you handle them. If you plan to work a lot of trees, a more expensive set may be needed. But if it is a hobby.. The cheaper cutters work fine. Just keep them sharpened and use them as intended.
