Decent garden tools

[jackmayo]

Looking to buy a decent set of gardening tools, such as:

 

Loppers

Secateurs

Spade

Fork

Rake

How

Shovel

 

What are the best brands or tools to look out for?

 

Also any good storage options to keep them tidy and out of the way in the garage?

 

Thanks

Fiskers.

Whatever you decide to buy check out Jonsies website, wont beat them on price or customer service!

As per the posts above. Fiskars for blades, Wolf-Garten for a multitool system and different handles. FR Jones are cheapest. You will still need to spend about £300 for a decent set though!

Wolf garten multi change tools buy them from http://www.gogarden.co.uk , good delivery time , good prices , can't go wrong

They do all the selection of tools in the wolf garten range

Bulldog fork,hoe,spade,shovel,rake. They have a couple of ranges available.

Felco No.2 secateurs

Bahco bypass loppers.

 

Not keen on fiskars and wolfgarten personally but I know a few who like them.

I'd pick up some old Elwell tools; fork, spade, hoes etc. You won't buy better modern stuff and they're a pleasure to use. Felco secateurs.

As for secateurs FELCO is the way to go, bought 2 pairs yesterday from Does and they were £37 each ( they were the cheapest). The wolfgarten multi system is a good tool, plenty of different attachments for garden dutys.

How about this pair of felco secateurs? Less than £2900 (but only just) :eek:
