Sneeboer Planting Trowel Old Dutch Style – Cherrywood Handle

The Sneeboer planting trowel ‘Old Dutch Style’ with a 14 cm Cherry wood handle has sharp sides and a pointed end allowing you to cut easily through the soil for all your planting and gardening needs. Use it for planting bulbs, seedlings and small plants or use the large head for breaking and turning the soil. This planting trowel can even be used to separate smaller perennials. The forged stainless steel head will stay sharp and provide you with a lifetime of service.

Usage:
The way to use this Sneeboer trowel is totally different to the norm, instead of the usual scooping action, you use it the same way one would use an axe. The weight is heavy and the balance is different. Penetrate the soil (you need the weight) move the trowel forwards and backwards and you have a perfect planting hole.
To give you an idea of how successful this tool is: all the bulbs (millions) at the famous Dutch Keukenhof Exhibition are planted using this special trowel.

This Sneeboer planting trowel is hand-forged from stainless steel and fitted with a Cherrywood handle from FSC Certified forests.

  1. Richard B. (Verified) –

    Fantastic quality. Absolutely lovey

  2. Yvonne (Verified) –

    I have some dexterity problems so this smaller trowel is just perfect for planting in the borders, large pots and raised beds where the soil is light. Substantially made but not too heavy. The sharp edge makes light work of planting bulbs and small perennials. I found the dig and pull towards you method most effective when planting some bare root roses. The wooden handle was comfortable in my hand and the shank felt sturdy. I look forward to using this for many years.
