Help with Garden Hand Tools

 


Hi.

Can anybody advise me on the best brand / make of hand tools.   It will
be a gift for a very keen gardener whose current crop of cheapo tools
keep breaking !

Are there any places online that anyone can recommend to buy from as
well.


Many thanks.

Bulldog tools have always had a good name

I have a Bulldog wooden-handled garden fork and it's great but I can't
comment on their hand tools. I know the factory in Wigan but upon visiting
the website am shocked to discover that Bulldog owners the Rollins Group
believe that Wigan is in Cheshire (see the Factory Tour page) and what the
hell is a 'Cicstene Monk' (About Us page)...

 



I have had my Spear and Jackson stainless spades and forks for more than 20
years I also use Wolf tools as I find the interchangeable heads allow me to
have a  wide range of infrequently used tools without taking up too much
shed space.  gardens4less.co.uk sell these online

My Spear and Jackson stainless steel fork lost a tine after about 1
year.
