A garden shears includes a pressing member, a holding member, a cutting member and a ratchet. The second through aperture of the cutting member is combined with the first assembling aperture of the pressing member and used as a pivot point. The holding member and the ratchet are assembled together at the assembling portion of the pressing member, and the driving teeth of the ratchet are engaged with the pawl of the cutting member such that the pressing member, the holding member and the ratchet have different pivot points. The opening between the blade and the anvil is smaller than the opening formed between the handle and the holding member. In other words, when a user holds both of the handle and the holding member to cut an object, since the opening formed between the handle and the holding member is larger than the cutting opening between the blade and the anvil, a stronger cutter torque is applied to increase the clipping strength derived from the anvil and the blade.
