Description
Felco’s 3.90 hawkbill pruning knife is engineered for viticulturists and tree-care specialists. The hardened steel blade curves for aggressive pull-cuts through woody stems, and the liner lock secures the blade firmly during heavy work.

The Vinedresser’s Edge
Hook the curved blade around a vine shoot and pull—the cut is clean, the plant unharmed.
Row after row, the locked blade never falters, keeping pace with your expertise.
Engineered in the Swiss Jura
Felco heat-treats each blade in Les Geneveys-sur-Coffrane to exacting Swiss standards.
The elastomer-inlaid handle absorbs vibration, reducing fatigue during all-day pruning.

Knife Care & Maintenance
Keep your blade performing at its best. Rinse and dry after each use to prevent corrosion. Apply a thin coat of mineral oil to the blade periodically. Sharpen with a whetstone or honing rod at a consistent angle. Store in a sheath, knife roll, or magnetic strip — never loose in a drawer. For carbon and Damascus steel, wipe after contact with acidic foods. For folding knives, clean the pivot area and apply a drop of lubricant to ensure smooth deployment.
