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.

• Heavy-Duty 4 Tine Capacity: The strong, resilient tines are designed and spaced to securely lift and move large volumes of bulky, coarse material (manure, hay, compost) without excessive material slipping through.

• Superior 135cm Leverage: The robust, extra-long Ash Wood handle offers excellent control and two-handed grip, maximizing leverage for driving the fork and protecting your back from strain when lifting heavy loads.

• Spring Grommet for Stability: The integrated spring grommet provides a secure point of attachment, minimizing the risk of the head loosening or wobbling during aggressive lifting and turning motions.

• Ergonomic Design: Built with sophisticated ergonomic design, the tool ensures maximum power transfer and minimal fatigue, making strenuous tasks like turning a large compost pile 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.
