Hand forged trowel for the greenhouse, porch planters or light garden use - but not for digging in heavy or unbroken soils. This heirloom garden tool makes the dreamiest gift for the plant/garden lover in your life.

Forged by father and son team in Sanjo, Niigata. Son, Takahiko Kondo gave up a promising career as bassist in a rock band to carry on his family business, which has been making trowels and hoes for over 100 years in Niigata. He’s now the director, and 6th generation in the business, as his mother and father still work beside him.
