Greenman stainless steel border fork

This BBC Gardeners’ World Magazine Best Buy winner is a beautiful, traditional handmade fork with a mirror polished stainless steel head and a sustainable ash handle.

The forkt feels sturdily and thoughtfully made and, with a 20 year warranty, offers a quality long term investment.
