Designed for grafting stone fruit and pome fruit trees, grapes, etc.
Copulation is a method of grafting fruit trees in which a part of the shoot with one or more buds acts as a scion. For this method, an oblique cut is made at the upper end of the branch, and the cutting (scion) is cut in the same way. In this case, the cleanliness of the cut is of great importance, since the successful fusion of the scion and rootstock depends on this. To do this, you will need a tool that can provide an even and smooth cut in one movement.
Such tools include a special copulating knife Altuna.
