I have weak hands and a lot of pain in my thumbs from arthritis. I can't use my current pruners because they are too hard to close. I have heard that ratcheting pruners are better for arthritis. Can anyone confirm? I am trying to decide if I should get ratcheting pruners or normal ones, and I don't want to spend more money if they won't be any better for me. Any thoughts, please?
