Kew Gardens Edging Knife - Blue

Its primary use is for creating clean edges along lawns, garden beds, and pathways, as well as for border maintenance.

No, the mirror-polished stainless steel head is designed to be highly resistant to rust.

The stirrup head, extra-wide tread, and long T-shaped handle work together to reduce bending and strain on your back and legs, providing a more comfortable user experience.

The handle is made from FSC-certified ash wood, which is weatherproofed for durability.

While it can penetrate soil, it is specifically designed for edging and border work. For heavy-duty digging or planting, a spade or trowel would be more appropriate.

After use, wipe the stainless steel head with a damp cloth to remove soil and debris. Store it in a dry place.

FSC-certified means the wood comes from forests that are managed responsibly, considering environmental, social, and economic aspects.

Ensure the blade is clean and polished. After use, always wipe it down thoroughly. If adhesion persists, a light application of food-grade mineral oil after cleaning and drying can help.

Check the connection point between the handle and the metal head. If there is slight movement, the ferrule may need tightening. For significant looseness, professional repair or replacement might be necessary.

Ensure the blade is sharp. For very hard or compacted soil, consider lightly watering the area beforehand to soften it. Use firm, steady downward pressure, leveraging the tread.
