In StockIn StockOut of stockHand-made and designed especially for Niwaki by third generation family craftsmen in Miki, deep in Hyogo, one of the heartlands of horticultural blacksmithing in Japan. Our new generation Hori Hori is forged from SK-5 carbon steel, making it sharper and tougher than other Hori (Horii? Horis?) for digging, weeding, planting and cutting, with a subtly profiled FSC Beech handle for sustained use, and of course the accompanying Canvas Sheath for easy access and safe storage. If in any doubt look for the kanji inscripted Niwaki stamped into the blade for proof of something very special.
In short, the Niwaki Hori Hori Pro is a weed digging, plant dividing, seed drilling, bulb planting, pot scraping, stone prising, ivy removing, snail flicking, back scratching (maybe not this one), life saving, rooting tooting all round game-changer.
