Abstract
A cut and grab shearing head for pruning shears or loppers which includes a laterally extending protuberance mounted on one of the jaws of the shears with this laterally extending protuberance having a bottom surface which can be located directly adjacent a resting ledge on the other of the jaws of the shears. Usage of the shears will permit a severed piece of vegetation to be grabbed between the bottom surface and the resting ledge when the jaws are moved from an open position to a closed position. The length of the protuberance is selected so as to leave a pair of spaced apart typical cutting sections which can be utilized in the conventional manner to cut vegetation and not clamp the vegetation.
