Handling dense, heavy, and wet materials like muck, manure, and compact compost is exceptionally demanding on tools, leading to breakage and back strain. The Krumpholz Dung Fork is engineered for this extreme workload, hand-forged by a European family blacksmith with over 220 years of experience. Featuring four robust, rounded tines, an extra-long 1300mm Ash Wood handle, and a sprung neck for enhanced stability, this professional-grade tool provides superior leverage and lifting capacity for efficient and reliable mucking and clearing.

Best For The committed small farmer, property owner, or heavy-duty gardener seeking a master-forged, rugged tool for the continuous, high-capacity lifting, moving, and turning of dense, heavy materials like wet manure and compost.

Key Features

• Master Hand-Forged Quality: Crafted by Krumpholz, a traditional European blacksmithing company since 1799, this tool is forged from premium steel for maximum toughness, balance, and guaranteed lifelong durability.

• Sprung Neck for Stability: The integrated sprung neck provides a crucial reinforcement where the handle meets the head, minimizing head wobble and resisting the high stress of prying and lifting heavy, compacted loads.

• Heavy-Duty 4 Tine Design: The four robust, rounded tines are specifically shaped and spaced to securely lift and move dense, heavy materials (dung, wet leaves, compacted compost) without material slipping through.

• Superior 1300mm Leverage: The robust, extra-long Ash Wood handle offers excellent control and reach, maximizing leverage for driving the fork and protecting your back from strain when moving heavy volumes.

• Ergonomic Design: Built with sophisticated ergonomic design, the tool ensures maximum power transfer and minimal fatigue, making strenuous tasks like mucking and turning heavy piles significantly more enjoyable.

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.
