I have a pair of Vesco double cut pruners and I really prefer them for making clean cuts while harvesting budwood and decapitating plants (especially harder woods like jaboticaba) I like them for pruning smaller diameter wood, and I feel like I can cut much closer to the trunk without scraping the trunk of the tree. Also with small branches these don't allow the branch to fold between the blades. They do sell replacement parts and are well made.
I think it's all preference at the end of the day, and I am actually planning to buy a pair of felco 2 pruners for my every day maintenance pruning.
