I’ve heard good things about Johnny’s Seeds:

I haven’t bought any myself as they’re kinda spendy but they appear to be well made.

Get Fiskars. I actually broke one of the blades on my ratcheting lopper, and they replaced the blade free of charge no questions asked. All their hand tools are the same quality. High quality. That’s for nippers, loppers, and the like.
