Collection: Krumpholz Hand-Forged Garden Tools

KRUMPHOLZ GARDEN TOOLS — HAND-FORGED IN GERMANY SINCE 1799

For over two centuries, Krumpholz has forged garden tools by hand using traditional blacksmithing techniques. Each blade is hardened and lacquered for strength and rust resistance, while ergonomic ash handles provide balance and comfort. From spades and planting knives to weeding tools, this collection is built for Australian conditions and designed to last decades with simple care.

Centuries of craftsmanship

Every hand-forged garden hand tool reflects centuries of craftsmanship. They are individually shaped, tempered and finished by hand to achieve balance and precision that factory-made tools can’t match.

Perfect for tough Australian conditions and native gardens

Many Australian gardens demand tools that can handle compacted soils, clay profiles and the deep root systems of native plants. From establishing Indigenous species to dividing grasses or working in dry summer ground, reliable steel and well-balanced handles make a noticeable difference. Hand-forged Krumpholz tools are built for that kind of work, offering strength without excess weight and precision without fragility; qualities that matter in tough conditions.

Trusted by professional horticulturalists and home gardeners alike, these hand-forged tools are designed for the detailed work that makes gardening a joy; loosening soil, planting bulbs, edging beds, or tending raised gardens. Their timeless design and enduring strength have made Krumpholz a name synonymous with quality across the world.

Minimalist Gardener is proud to bring the Krumpholz legacy to our range, offering a collection of hand-forged garden tools that connect Australian gardeners with a centuries-old tradition of craftsmanship.
