Handmade Garden Trowel

After handling this handmade garden trowel, you might wonder if was made by dwarves. And we’re not saying it wasn’t. What we do know, is that it was wrought by hand in Oregon by relentless smiths who know their craft.

Featuring a 6-inch, generously curved and sharpened blade, you’ll have a hard time finding a soil this won’t get through. Even the hard, rock-ridden crust of the northeast is no match. A sturdy tang sunk deep into the wooden handle is secured by a steel ferrule, ensuring this handmade garden trowel outworks and outlives you and all your descendants.

A wide—but not too wide—heel (that’s the wide part of the blade) makes this a versatile tool in the garden, the greenhouse, or the field. Suitable for planting, bed preparation, transplanting, and more, the handmade garden trowel will quickly become your trusty sidekick, no matter the task.

Care

These tools are man-made with raw materials extracted from the earth. Care for them as such, and they will outlive you. Periodically apply beeswax or linseed oil to wooden handles, wipe blades down with oil, and don’t leave them out in the elements. If you follow these simple instructions, your great great grandchildren will thank you.

Use a sharpening stone, bastard file, or chainsaw file for (serrated edges) to keep your tools sharp.
