The Faithfull Countryman Hand Cultivator is the ideal tool for loosening compacted surface soil around shrubs and plants, and for cultivating soil to kill weed growth. The 3 narrow pointed tines are made from heat-treated (hardened) carbon steel to provide both strength and durability. Powder-coated finish provides improved resistance to rust, scratches, humidity and alkaloids in the soil. Fitted with a European Ash handle supplied from FSC® sustainable resources. These are then lacquered for protection against the weather. The small size allows it to work in tight spaces where a long handle tool cannot be used. This hand cultivator is perfect for breaking up soil in small plots, flower beds, vegetable patches and is useful for clearing leaves and other debris from beds and between plants. The Countryman Range has been designed for the gardener who requires a tool they can rely on to provide years of dependable service. FAICOUHCUL
