The weeder trowel is one of the essential tools for gardening and one of the first to acquire. It consists of a very short handle made of natural ash, known for its hardness, with a metal ferrule socket where the curved trowel-shaped head with sharp edges attaches. Forged from hardened steel, it is resistant to shocks, torsion, and corrosion thanks to the boron steel finish. The sharp blade easily penetrates the soil to remove "weeds". This trowel can also be used to scrape and loosen the surface soil. It is a small hand tool suitable for relatively soft and light substrates, already well-prepared and loosened, rich in compost or sand. Valuable for digging the soil in small spaces, the weeder trowel fits between rocks in rockeries or between neighbouring plants, allowing for precise work. With its short handle, this model is particularly suitable for raised vegetable beds or flower pots. Remember to work in a kneeling position if you are working in a traditional flower bed, to protect your back. The handle is compostable, and the metal head is recyclable.

The traditional De Pypere range includes high-quality tools, all made of forged steel and equipped with ash handles. The hardened boron steel coating on the blades is very hard and resistant, making it a valuable material for tools that can be heavily used in the garden.

This tool comes with a warranty. The warranty does not apply to handles or grips, only to the metal parts, excluding consumables (screws, springs, etc.), and within the scope of normal use.
