Trail Cutter Buyer's Guide

The pioneers of the old West used wagons.

These trail blazers forged through daunting wilderness and brush on their way to the Pacific.

There may not be new land to discover, but there is still plenty of the wild left to tame.

With a trail cutter, you can tame what's left of the wilderness on your property.

Blades
Trail cutters are tough mowers, designed to handle overgrown brush, weeds and saplings. They aren't designed to mow regular grass like your lawn.

The blades on a trail cutter aren't like a traditional rotary mower. Instead, they are equipped with two hardened steel blades that swing back and forth, like a pendulum. These blades can pulverize branches up to 3" thick.

Articulating Hitch
Equipped with an articulating hitch, trail cutters can be offset to the left or right of your towing vehicle.

This is important when cutting through brush so you don't have to drive directly through the wilderness. It's also useful when mowing under low hanging trees or in ditches.
