Silly question but what is the difference between bypass pruners and those not labeled "bypass"... I see mixed results on Amazon and Fiskar.

by-pass are for clean cuts on live plants, anvil used on dead limb pruning

Is this item made in USA?

Amazon's product description (as of 2014/11) now states: "The 9109 Bypass Pruner is made in China." Along with: "Fiskars is a global company with manufacturing locations all over the world, including several places in the US. Many of Fiskars' blades are stainless steel. The blade on the 9109 is a coated, high carbon steel blade." Seems like this model has seen significant cost-cutting over the years, maybe too much...

How thick the branches you can cut?

You can cut over an inch diameter my rotating the cutter with open jaws around the branch. The sharp cutting blade will slice through the branch.

I would like these shears for cutting the hard dorsal, pectoral and tail fins off of fresh whole fish like salmon, bass, trout etc? will it work well?

I would say it will work on some fish. Smaller fish such as bass and trout should work well but large fish with tougher fins might be a struggle. Also, these aren't stainless steel so rust could be a problem.
