Sheep shears/clippers

Can anyone recommend some cordless sheep shears/clippers that don’t cost the earth? Only want them for dagging in the field, not shearing a whole sheep.

Surely you don’t want hand shears.??Been there done that never again Use electric shears here for belly clipping and sagging with small suitcase generator

Shear cordless from Welsh shearing, around £250 iirc.

First units were a bit dicky due to the Chinese manufacture, but much better now. Use them every week of the year here

Do lads get much out of dagging blades before they need resharpening ? And is it expensive/ hard to get them resharpened properly ?

Already got some Jakoti shears so had a go with them. Thought the electric shears might be a bit safer - less chance of taking a tail off whilst they’re wriggling about! Two person job and got the ram done. Ewes won’t be so easy though...
