Burgon & Ball - Left-Handed Razor Hoe – High-Performance Japanese Steel Weeding Tool

Burgon & Ball Left-Handed Razor Hoe – High-Performance Japanese Steel Weeding Tool

The Burgon & Ball Left-Handed Razor Hoe is a specialized version of the legendary weeding tool, specifically mirrored to provide left-handed gardeners with the same "cult-favorite" efficiency. This ultra-tough cultivator is designed to be drawn toward the body, using a natural pulling motion to slice through soil and sever weeds. Forged from laminated Japanese high-carbon steel, it combines a razor-sharp edge with a hardened tip, allowing it to dominate challenging ground—from sun-baked clay to stony allotment plots—with surgical precision.

Best For: Left-handed gardeners who require a high-performance, ergonomic "all-in-one" tool for weeding, cultivating, and soil preparation in densely planted areas.

Key Features

• True Left-Handed Design: The head is specifically angled for left-handed use, ensuring the razor-edge and hardened tip engage the soil perfectly for a comfortable and efficient pulling motion.
• Laminated Japanese Steel: Crafted from premium high-carbon Japanese steel, renowned for its incredible edge retention and structural strength compared to standard steel hoes.
• Effortless Draw-Action: By drawing the tool through the soil, you utilize larger muscle groups, making the removal of stubborn weeds and the cultivation of heavy earth significantly less fatiguing.
• Compact & Precise: The 12cm wide head is expertly sized to weave between rows of vegetables or delicate border perennials without disturbing the root systems of your plants.
• Sustainable FSC® Hardwood: Features a durable FSC® certified hardwood handle and a classic leather cord for convenient hanging and organized storage in the garden shed.

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.

Lead Times:

• In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
• Supplier-Dependent Items: Can take up to 2 weeks to arrive.

While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.
