Gardenfolk and the mechanically informed; advice please ? What happens when you dont wipe away excess lanolin on a set of garden choppers? Google tells me how to clean them a million times, but I can't figure out the consequences of omitting that step.
I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with mine and how to fix/prevent. Suddenly they are very stiff to open and shut (comparable to chopping a small branch both ways), all the way, not just when the blade touches (so I don't think it's the black patch causing it). They're honestly not excessively dirty or rusty? But I think they didn't get a wipe down after their last spray- could that be it? Fine last use a couple of months ago.
I quite like pruning, but my lack of upper body strength is making me sad to use these now!
Reccoendations to fix? Do I need to take apart to get at interior stickiness?
