Looks good but I'd be worried about durability of multi piece systems if they get hard use.

Thats a good deal all round, and very fast delivery.
I use the Gardena equivilent ( it just kinda happened that way ), but  did used to sell the wolf tools years ago. They were always very well made. :D

I have a lot of this stuff, {7 different handles and over 30 different heads} in various brand names
Wolf Garden, Wolf Garten and Wolf Geratte (Yes I know that it is from the continent)
Its good stuff too, long lasting (some of mine is now over 20 years old) and hard to lose even if you put it down somewhere obscure (the red and yellow colour scheme does stand out a bit)
The range that they bring into the UK changes periodically though, some pieces I have can no longer be got here, (some never have been, EBAY  is great at boarder crossing shopping) and some have just been reintroduced as supposedly a new idea!

If you are collecting Wolf tools there are some more you could look for, Wolf Gerate/Tesco like these.

Crumbles soil into a fine tilth for sowing seeds or planting.  Mixes peat, manure and fertiliser into the soil
