ABSTRACT:
A branch hook attachment for tools such as loping shears or hedge trimmers to provide the user extended reach to grasp foliage so the foliage can be pulled within the user's reach. The hook is U-shaped and defines a bight area into which the branch or limb can be guided and grasped for cutting. The hook can be provided as an after-market item which can be secured to the handle of existing tools by a clamp or may be incorporated at the end of one of the handles. The hook may also be removably insertable into the hollow end of one of the handles and retained by a detent. In another embodiment, the branch hook is a flexible material and is attached to the end of the tool handle so the branch hook can be better guided to access and extricate branches through entangled foliage.
