Ye, they have a large selection of them... But they even say so on the side - they are brittle and easy to chip, and you need to take care even with harder woods.
I get the appeal and they're heirloom quality for home use for sure. The Felcos pehaps have a more "industrial" look, but for certain they do their job just as well, and everything is replaceable and serviceable (on the most iconic Felco 2 model the anvil is riveted on - it's not something that would be replaced often... on the picture is the Felco 11 which are basically identical but the anvil is screwed on and easier to replace). Most people consider Felcos expensive but the Japanese pruners cost 3-4 times as much!
