Felco 22 vs Felco 221

[Delcho]

Hey everyone,
I’ve been thinking of buying a good pair of loppers. After searching around I decided on the Felco 22 but just before ordering it, I saw a new model - Felco 221.
Does anybody here own both of these models? I was wondering why the new model costs more than half the price of the classic 22? Both of them seem to be sturdy and capable of cutting up to 45mm of diameter, so why the big price difference?
Thanks in advance!

Dear Delcho , get both of of the pruners. Felco , is expensive and great. I forgot the model number I use hand pruners, they are over $60.00 a pair and all parts replaceable . I forget the place where I got those. I remember I will send the name of the company
I got it on the tip of my tongue. They sending me catalogs all the time. They have any type of felco made. I kno their loppers are expensive. I use a small top handle chain saw for anything larger than hand pruners. I love felco pruners. Buck , in n.c.
