Re potting sickle Small / Large
The difference between No.65XS and No.65X is the angle of the blade.
No.65X has a more curved line. If it is a large pot, No. 65X is better.
For small pots, No. 65X is too angled and cannot be cleaned properly.
On the other hand, the blade of No. 65XS does not have much of an angle, making it easier to work with.
For these reasons, No. 65XS is recommended for small bonsai, and No. 65X is recommended for medium and large bonsai.
230mm No.65XS : 4,900yen
270mm No.65X : 5,300 yen
