Is the pruner titanium or steel? I've seen this model advertised both ways.

No, it is neither. It is aluminum and plastic. Junk! I would recommend buying anything like this only in person where you can inspect the tool and read its specifications in print. It is critical to be able to inspect the cutting mechanism to be sure it is an all steel by-pass blade and anvil system that can be sharpened and maintained. The mechanism in this piece of junk has a steel blade that presses against an aluminum body which is supposed to act as the anvil. The steel blade digs into the soft aluminum which, after a few cuts creates a rough surface that binds and resists further cutting. That results in having to apply ever increasing force on the rope to attempt a cut and the cutting head flexes and breaks. The aluminum breaks and the plastic on the opposite side of the cutting head does not offer any structure, the thing is rendered useless after 6 cuts. Like I say, Junk! Amazon's description fails the accurate information test in every way. I must say though, the tool looks really good until you use it. Fiskars usually offers good, functional and durable tool which makes this piece of junk doubly disappointing.

Where can i buy a "hook end" replacement blade for my fiskars 16' pole saw?

I believe it is available from Fiskars as part of the head assembly, $14.99 + shippping.

Has anyone used this item for more than 2 seasons? Seems that most of the complaints are in regards to either the blade or the pole bending or breakin

I have had my Fiskars Extendable Pole Saw and Pruner for about 5 or 6 years. It has held up very well. I don't know if the quality has gone down since I purchased mine but the one that I have is excellent and has had plenty of use. Mine has a separate handle that came with the trimmer which allows me to remove the 15" blade and attach it to the separate handle and utilize that blade without lugging the entire pole with me. I have been searching for a model with the same handle or a way to find just the handle separately but cannot locate it on Amazon or Youtube. The new models do not appear to include this separate blade handle. I would recommend this tool from my long time ownership and experience with it. Good luck.
