Powder-coated finish provides improved resistance to rust, scratches, humidity and alkaloids in the soil. Ideal for trimming the edges of lawns to create neat and tidy borders. Fitted with a long European ash T-grip handle supplied from FSC sustainable resources and lacquered for protection against the weather. A treaded head shape spreads the load and provides additional support for the foot when the blade is pushed into a lawn, helping to alleviate fatigue. Edging irons are also commonly called an edging knife or lawn edger. The Countryman Range has been designed for the gardener who requires a tool they can rely on to provide years of dependable service.
