TOOL BOX FOR BONSAI, Wire and Knob cuttersWire cuttersYou will eventually need a pair of wire cutters, although these won’t need to be purchased immediately. If you put wire on, you will eventually have to take it off.These wire cutters allow you to cut the wire right up to the tree's bark,without harming the tree.These too are essential.

You will also want to get several different thicknesses of wire. In general, anodized copper wire is recommended. It is very flexible until it is bent, then it sets and holds its position. You will use it to position and train branches. We have more on wire in the wiring section of this book.

Knob cutters:are very similar to the concave cutters,except that they have a spherical head,which allows you to cut branches and leave a small hollowed out scar.

BONSAI HISTORY :The history of bonsai is long and storied. Bonsai first appeared in China over a thousand years ago on a very basic scale, known as pun-sai. Pun-sai was the practice of growing single specimen trees in pots. These early specimens displayed little foliage and rugged, gnarled trunks which often looked like animals, dragons and birds. There are a great number of myths and legends surrounding Chinese bonsai. The grotesque or animal-like trunks and root formations are still highly prized today.
