Cordless Sheep Shears

Heavy-duty cordless sheep clippers built for all-year shearing without the restriction of cables. Our cordless range includes the Outback Cordless Sheep Clippers and HD Roamer Cordless Sheep Clipper — ideal for fly-strike work, smaller flocks and outdoor jobs where mains power isn't available. Run times of up to 2 hours per battery, two batteries supplied as standard, fast charge in 2.5 hours.

Mains-Powered Electric Sheep Shears

Robust mains-powered sheep shearing machines for continuous work on larger flocks. The Ewe 2000 range offers 200 W motors with 2,600 rpm cutting speeds — lightweight, smooth-running and built for all-day shearing and dagging. Each machine ships with a set of quality steel blades and a sturdy carry case.

Sheep Shears for Dagging & Crutching

Quick-clip work — dagging, crutching, tailing, belly clipping and fly-strike removal — needs a different tool to full-fleece shearing. Our cordless multiblade livestock clippers and Ewe 2000 multihead clippers are built for short-burst jobs across sheep, dirty cattle and horses. For lightweight hand-shearing, the Double Bow and Ergonomic Sprung Loaded Hand Shears handle small-flock dagging without a power source. See also our Shearing and Dagging Blades collection.

Multihead & Multiblade Livestock Clippers

Multihead and multiblade clippers handle sheep, cattle and horses from a single machine — ideal for mixed-livestock smallholders. The Ewe 2000 Multihead and HD Roamer Multiblade come with shearing heads, dagging blades and cattle/horse clipping heads in one kit. Switch between coats and animals in seconds.

Cordless: portable, ideal for outdoor work, fly-strike season and small flocks. Two batteries supplied, ~2-hour run time per battery. Best for jobs away from mains power.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I go for cordless or mains-powered clippers?

It depends on how and where you'll be shearing. Cordless clippers give you freedom to move around and are great for small flocks or outdoor use. If you're doing lots of shearing in one place, mains-powered clippers will give you nonstop power.

What's the difference between shearing and dagging?

Shearing is full-fleece removal — taking the whole coat off, usually once a year in late spring or early summer. Dagging is short-burst hygiene work — clipping the rear and belly to remove soiled wool, often done in summer to prevent fly strike. Most cordless and multiblade clippers handle both; dedicated mains machines like the Ewe 2000 are built specifically for the heavier shearing job.

How often do I need to sharpen or replace the blades?

If you're using your shears regularly, sharpen the blades every 5–10 hours of use. Keep a spare set from our Shearing & Dagging Blades collection just in case.

How do I shear a sheep at home?

Start with a dry sheep, secure it in a comfortable shearing position (typically seated, leaning against your legs), and work from the belly outward in long, smooth strokes. Take it slow — a steady pass with quality cordless or mains shears produces a cleaner cut and a less stressed animal. For full step-by-step technique, see our shearing guides.

Which sheep shears are best for small flocks?

For smallholders with 5–30 sheep, the cordless HD Roamer or Outback handles a full year of work without needing mains access. For 30+ sheep or commercial use, step up to the mains-powered Ewe 2000 for continuous, all-day shearing.

Do the shears come with a warranty?

Yes — every pair of Masterclip shears comes with a 2-year warranty and UK-based support, so you're covered if anything goes wrong.
