Its head is hand-forged with a steel body and a boron steel finish. It is a lightweight, easy-to-handle, durable, practical and well-made tool that will last for many years.

The trowel is one of the essential tools when gardening, and one of the first to acquire. It consists of a very short handle made of natural ash, known for the hardness of its wood, with a metal socket where the forged head is fixed in tempered carbon steel that resists shocks, torsion, and corrosion thanks to the boron steel finish. The 3 sharp and pointed teeth easily penetrate the soil and loosen it without the need to turn it over. The tulip-shaped head also allows for easy removal of weeds, including roots, and digging. Perfect for weeding in small spaces and creating planting holes, the trowel fits between neighbouring plants, allowing for precise work. With its very short handle, this model is particularly suitable for raised beds and planters. Remember to work with bent knees in a traditional flowerbed, to protect your back. The handle is compostable, and the metal head is recyclable.

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