I.XL George Wostenholm Pruning/Garden Knife (2.52″)

George Wostenholm has been making gardeners pocket knives in Sheffield for over 200 years. This traditional, handmade, folding pocket knife will have been carried by the gardeners of Victorian Britain’s grand houses. ’Made in Sheffield’ is a time-honoured hallmark of excellence, quality and heritage. 

The narrow 60mm peach pruning blade enables finer, more delicate pruning but is still capable of all general gardening cutting tasks.
The highly polished blade material is 420S45 high carbon stainless steel which is hardened to 52/55 Rockwell C. This provides a perfect knife edge which can be easily re-sharpened using sharpening steel when the time comes.

The handle is solid Buffalo which is carefully shaped to fit perfectly into the hand. A nickel silver bolster, brass pins and linings complete the traditional style of this excellent knife.

Made by craftsmen from the finest materials. The finest high carbon stainless steel pruning blade is mirror polished and is ideal for the gardener. Its many uses include pruning & grafting, taking cuttings, cutting flowers, harvesting veg. slicing string, peeling fruit etc.

A beautiful quality garden knife that is sure to be a companion for life.

Supplied in a traditional pack.

  1. Ian L. (Verified) –

    Delighted with the quality
    Finished to the highest level these knives feel substantial, and are a pleasure to use as a gardener. I have paid more for knives in the past from a well known maker but they are nowhere near the quality of these. Delighted with my purchase and customer service from Creeper & Knotweed.
