Bet they are real enough. Fake pruners on Amazon is a new thing apparently. I’ve ordered some cheap pruners from there but they never deceived me on what they were. Thornx didn’t hold up like ARS Thornx Pruners . I’m sure I got what I paid for them. Ars are such inexpensive pruners if you order in advance there is no reason to use anything else. Make sure when you order ARS they actually say the model# and that they are ARS pruners Amazon.com : ars pruners
The ones below are fake but they don’t say they are real
These are the real ones
These are real
There have always been knock offs this isn’t new to amazon its been going on for years.
