Narrow planter trow

In this narrow design, this planting trowel is suitable for many kinds of work. Shaped like a shovel, it can be used to fill soil into pots and tubs when planting – and (almost) without crumbs and spills. The sharpened tip reveals: this tool is just as capable of digging planting holes with its long forged blade as it is of completely grasping and stubbing out deep-rooted weeds. Especially in densely overgrown beds, but also in the raised bed or balcony box this succeeds without affecting neighboring plants.

The Krumpholz family knows a thing or two about forging. Based in the Franconian Forest, their ancestors acquired their first own hammer mill - the Guttenberger Hammer - in 1799 and were already producing tools and other everyday objects from forged iron back then. Today, the company's fortunes are in the hands of the eighth generation. The garden tools that leave the production site, which is still in its old location but has long since been modernized and expanded, are tools of the highest quality: shaped to their intended use under the weight of the forging hammer, compacted and reinforced where necessary, fitted with sharpened edges or blades and equipped with high-quality ash wood handles. Free-form forging, as practiced at Krumpholz, requires special skill and a sense of proportion. The steel used, a Swedish steel with a chrome-molybdenum content, is tough, strong and easy to clean.
