Operating a chainsaw even for experienced users can be a dangerous proposition. Kickback is a constant risk & if a proper grip is not maintained the consequences could be disastrous. Black & Decker’s unique GK1000 Alligator Loppers have been built to integrate the heavy duty cutting performance of a conventional chainsaw into a tool that is also exceptionally safe to use – for amateurs & experts alike. Designed like an ordinary pair of loppers but with a fully enclosed powerful chainsaw blade housed in the upper jaw the GK1000’s innovative design grips branches & fallen logs in place while you cut completely eliminating the risk of kickback. Thanks to a sizeable 550W motor sawing through even the toughest woods is a simple matter & branches up to 4 in diameter can be severed with complete ease.
