The Faithfull Essentials Hand Fork has sharp pointed tines which are ideal for working the top soil and for the easy removal of weeds and unwanted growth, where the entire root needs to be removed. The head is manufactured from heat-treated (hardened) carbon steel to provide both strength and durability. The powder-coated finish provides improved resistance to rust, scratches, humidity and alkaloids in the soil. Fitted with a comfortable plastic handle. As they are often used for digging up weeds, hand forks are sometimes referred to as 'weeding forks' but they are suited to many jobs around the garden, such as preparing planting holes, transplanting, aerating and mixing additives into your soil and are indispensable for levelling around border edges and tidying up the soil. The small hand fork makes a good all-round garden tool, especially in those tight places like between plantings.Additional Information:Product Type: Fork
