I really like these corona pruning shears that I got recently. Very easy to sharpen due to the blade being removable and I'm sure they'll last a long time!
Drill, impact driver, and circular saw. That's my most commonly used tools. I have DeWalt but no brand loyalty, only battery loyalty lol. My favorite tools are the little mill and lathe I convinced my work to buy
Hori hori knife! And my Fiskar snips
Im a fan of the kobalt 80v yard tools like push mower and weed whacker. Also ive got an old massey furguson backhoe that is just a workhorse. My cheap chineese tao tao atv is a usefull addition and helps run stuff around and pull wagons when the little tractor is busy.
I'm a huge fan of my electric chainsaw. It uses the same batteries as my snowblower so I've got enough juice to do just about anything and don't have to mess around with starting and stopping all the time on bigger projects.
Never had any problems with my Kubota tractor, 10 seasons in. Just replaced all of the bucket hydraulic hoses, which cost a small fortune but that's been the biggest maintenance. Also got a Howse bush hog that's probably 15 yrs old and beat to hell, but gets the job done year after year. Don't think they make them anymore, though.
Do you happen to have their leaf blower by chance? Mine I feel doesn't blow as hard as it ought to for being new. Before I crack it open for maintenance I decided to poke around lemmy to see if anybody's talked about them yet lol
No, sorry. I tend to let the leaves do their thing
We did that last year, but they got all mega packed into the grass from the snow. Sadly our HOA is displeased by such 😭 They'll be turning soon, I hope you get some good colors this year!

If you post a picture that includes blood, gore, or a dead animal mark it NSFW.
