It is a sensational tool that allows for effortless weeding and loosening of soil. I recommend it for clay-limestone soils.

A traditional rose fork equipped with an ash handle ending in a T, and a head with 2 sharpened tines that penetrate the soil effortlessly. It is a very useful tool for working and loosening any type of soil in dense shrub beds. Its head is hand-forged from boron steel.

This traditional De Pypere rose fork, equipped with an ash handle, has a 2-pointed sharp head that allows you to work the soil in shrub, tree, and climbing plant beds, even if they are planted close together. Its ergonomic, T-shaped handle provides a good grip. Its head is hand-forged from steel, with a boron steel finish. Durable, easy to handle, and robust, it is a well-made tool that will last for many years.

Dimensions: head: 25 x 15cm (6in) - handle length: 90cm (35in).

The rose fork, with its narrow head and two sturdy tines, is a precision tool designed to loosen, cultivate, and work the soil deeply on small surfaces. It is well suited for working clay or heavy and compact soils. It allows for soil aeration without turning it over, simply by penetrating the two tines. Unlike a spade, this garden tool does not disturb the soil's microbial life and does not cut through earthworms, which are essential for soil health and fertility. It can be used to uproot weeds, which can simply be removed. The rose fork can also be used to dig and scrape the soil surface. This rose fork consists of a natural ash handle, known for its hardness, with a metal ferrule where the forged head is attached, made of toughened steel resistant to shocks, torsion, and corrosion thanks to the boron steel finish. The T-shaped handle and the two 'stepping' points located at the top of the head, enhance the force: they provide support for driving the head into the soil. The handle is compostable, and the metal head is recyclable.

The traditional De Pypere range includes high-quality tools, all forged from steel, equipped with ash handles. The 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 is under warranty. The warranty does not apply to handles or grips, only to the metal parts except for consumables (screws, springs, etc.) and within the scope of normal use.

Directions for use The rose fork, with its narrow head and two sturdy tines, is a precision tool designed to loosen, cultivate, and work the soil deeply, in small areas, between bushes, trees or climbing plants and in flower beds where the plants are close together. It is particularly well-suited for working with clay or heavy and compacted soils. It allows for soil aeration without turning it over, simply by penetrating the soil with its two tines, and for uprooting weeds, which can then be easily removed. The rose fork can also be used for loosening and raking the surface of the soil. The T-shaped handle and the two 'foot steps' located at the top of the head, multiply the force: they provide support for pushing the head into the soil and rotating it.
