The blade on this trowel is stainless steel with one edge cut into teeth, set into a turned pinewood handle with a leather rope loop for hanging, and there is just the one size.

The serration is the part worth knowing about. It saws through root mass when you are lifting or dividing a plant, and opens a compost bag or cuts twine without sending you back to the shed for a knife. Planting, potting on and filling containers are the everyday jobs. Bring it in after use, as pinewood would rather not live in a border.

FAQs

What is the serrated edge for?

Cutting through root mass when you are lifting or dividing a plant, and for the small jobs that otherwise send you back to the shed: opening a compost bag, cutting twine, trimming a root ball to fit a pot.

How does it compare with the matching fork?

The trowel is 33 cm and 300 g against the fork's 30 cm and 200 g, so it has more weight behind the blade. The fork loosens and lifts; this digs and moves soil.

Will the handle last outdoors?

It is pinewood, so it should come in rather than live in a border. That is what the hanging hoop is for: a hook in a shed or porch keeps it dry between jobs.

Is the blade sharp?

The serrated edge has teeth rather than a knife edge, so it cuts by sawing. It is not a blade you need to be careful of in the way you would with a pruning knife, but it will still take skin if you drag a hand along it.
