IT is best to find a stem of the same thickness of the scion; it will double your chances of it taking. He shows the simplicity of the cleft graft. You could also use whip and tongue. Practice with any clippings first. Gloves save bloodshed.

Nice video. How did I miss this one??
When using the knife, ROCK the knive rather than slice directly thru the cut branch on the tree.
I did 25 rootstock with two teen boys and they did not cut themselves. Rock the knife to make the cut.
Off to get the pear scions.
