Yawv Pruners – Compatible with DeWalt, Milwaukee or Makita
Every day I bring you an item on Amazon that I personally use or has been purchased by many members of the audience and I have researched enough to recommend.
For today’s TSP Amazon Item of the day we have the YAWV Electric Pruning Shears. These are a brushless, SK5 steel-blade cordless pruner that runs on the DeWalt 20V battery platform, and is also available in models that run on the Milwaukee 18v and Makita 18V platforms. Which means that likely 90% of you guys will be able to use these as based on prior discussions these are clearly the top three brands in use on TSPC homesteads.
Now let me be clear, I own two of the full-sized DeWalt electric pruners, and they’re fantastic. They’ve got more size, more leverage, and chew through heavy cuts like a champ. Just in the size comparisson here you can see how much larger the DeWalt pruners are.
Honestly I only originally picked this tool up to test before recommending it to you guys. But now, I’m glad I did. In fact, my wife reaches for it first almost every time.
Here’s why:
- It’s lighter, easier to maneuver, and just more pleasant to use for 90% of pruning tasks
- Cuts up to ¾” material cleanly and confidently
- Runs on your existing battery system, so no mystery power packs
- Comes in form-factors that match the big three ecosystems: DeWalt, Milwaukee, Makita
- And costs less than half of what the Milwaukee-branded pruner goes for and you can’t even get a 18V Makita pruner to my knowledge anyway
This thing really shines when you’ve got a pile of orchard trimmings, vines, or garden cleanup to deal with. It’s also become a go-to tool when we’re sizing down branches for biochar burns, especially when using a setup like a Weber kettle, where smaller material is key. Just this past weekend, my wife and I filled two 32-gallon trash cans worth of slash using this and the DeWalt model, side by side.
It is also great for hunters setting up stands when you need to clear laneways for shooting, especially bow hunters. It is super quiet and small so it takes up very little room in your pack when out scouting and setting up stands. And just in general it is great for daily and seasonal pruning. It really helps smaller handed folks and older folks with pruning especially when there is a lot of pruning to be done.
And here’s the kicker: if you’ve ever tried other off-brand pruners before and got burned by short-lived batteries, like I did with this one here made by Drago, the Yawv solves that problem. Since it’s a bare tool, you’re using the same reliable battery system you already trust—and if for some reason it doesn’t live up to expectations, Amazon’s return policy has your back.
So if you’re on the DeWalt, Milwaukee, or Makita platform, check out the YAWV pruners for your tool line today. Whether you’re looking to save some money, add utility, or both—this one’s a smart addition.
