Krumpholz Hand-Forged Small Hand Hoe | 40cm

Premium German craftsmanship

A single-blade hand hoe crafted using traditional German forging techniques. The broad, angled blade sits on a 40cm ash handle, giving you the reach to chop and draw and the control to work close to established plants.

Swing the head to sever weeds at the root, or draw it toward you to break surface crust and pull soil into place. Solid and well balanced, this is a tool suited to gardeners who value durability and long-term performance.

Perfect for Australian conditions

The hand hoe lets you cut seedling weeds at the surface without disturbing the mulch layer or the soil beneath it. It is the tool for keeping a new bed clean through the first years, when weed pressure is highest and the plants are not yet closed over. The same qualities make it well suited to bush regeneration work.

Key features

This hand hoe is designed for strength, edge retention and an extended working life. The single blade is the simplest of the three heads in the 40cm range.
