Know before you buy
The cranked shaft elevates the handle above the soil line, which provides extra clearance for your knuckles while digging. This prevents your hands from scraping against the ground during planting or weeding.
The handle is crafted from FSC-certified ash wood, which is naturally durable. To maintain its condition and prevent the wood from drying out, we recommend occasionally applying a light coat of linseed oil.
The stainless steel head is highly rust-resistant and features a smooth finish that minimizes soil adhesion. This makes it easier to clean and prevents heavy clumps of dirt from sticking to the blade while you work.
Yes, this tool is backed by a 15-year warranty, reflecting the brand's confidence in the durability of the stainless steel and the quality of the construction.
Yes, the handle features a leather strap specifically designed for hanging the tool in a shed or garage, keeping your workspace organized and the blade off the floor.
