Know before you buy
This 85cm handle is specifically designed to fit all larger Sneeboer spades. It is not intended for smaller hand tools or trowels.
To ensure a secure fit, you will need a high-quality wood or bubble glue, such as Loctite Double Bubble, and a brass rivet to lock the handle in place.
To prevent the wood from drying out or cracking over time, we recommend periodically treating the handle with boiled linseed oil.
The D-handle design provides an ergonomic grip that allows for better leverage and control, which can significantly reduce hand and wrist fatigue during extended gardening sessions.
This handle is engineered specifically for Sneeboer spade sockets. While it may physically fit other tools, we cannot guarantee a secure or safe connection with non-Sneeboer equipment.
