Sneeboer Small Planting Spade
This planting spade is ideal for working in small and narrow plot patches or digging when kneeling down. Technically it is like a cross between a spade and a trowel and is mostly used for eradicating roots, breaking up the soil or preparing plant holes.
The combination of the pointy scoop, the slightly sharpened edges and the well-shaped handle makes working on hard soil and persistent roots easy. Stainless steel, hand-forged; length 17 cm, max. width 17 cm. Ash handle.
Total length 57 cm, weight 550 g.
More product information
Forged garden tools.
It is modern practice to produce garden tools by pressing and rolling processes. The difference between such tools and forged ones need hardly be explained. The photographs on this page speak volumes. Only with forging all the small details can be attended to and the materials compressed or reinforced where necessary.
Forged in West Friesland.
By Sneeboer.
For over 100 years Jaap Sneeboer's (pronounced »Snaybooer«) descendants have been supplying their fellow West Frisian citizens with the tools they require for their agricultural work, construction and horticulture. In order to manufacture these traditional stainless steel Frisian garden tools, Sneeboer uses two different grades of stainless steel: a highgrade, toughened steel for the springs and shaft socket, and a lesser, simpler to forge grade for the actual working parts. The elements are permanently welded together and subsequently ground and polished. All these processes are carried out by hand.
