Afternoon,
Just wondering, what's the general opinion on the wolf garten "locked in" range of tools.
Personally like the look of then just after a review before I flash the cash.

I got most of them and had most for about 10 years and I would say get them you will not regret it.

+1, used them for years, the handle's getting a bit past it but then I leave it out in all weathers and never oil it either.

the hoe is one of the best I've used and the seed drill wheel was top notch when I was row focused.

Yeah they do look solid....are they relatively easy to home sharpen?

[ConfusedGardener]

I agree with all the comments so far. I bought into the system a couple of months back, and everything I've used so far seems well made. With a 10 year guarantee I don't think you can go far wrong. There is only one downside that I have found so far - if you only have a single handle, and there are two of you, then you will have to fight over who uses the tool!

[The Red Baron]

Two of us? That I doubt, my wife is, how can I say it....not hands on haha but was planning to get two handles anyway so I can have say.....the cultivator and rake, etc etc....right where's that debit card.......

[Steveharford]

I've just subscribed to this system. Really well made and a good range of tools. I particularly like the draw hoe which has a 4" wide blade with a screw fixing to enable you to renew the blade. Now I don't anticipating this being necessary for a long while but Father in law has worn his down and cannot get a replacement anywhere. I could make one but would have difficulty drilling hardened steel. Suggestions on a postcard please

[The Red Baron]

I'd go for using a cobalt drill on the hardened steel....that's what I use. Unless it's crazy crazy hard, but cobalt should do the trick

[Steveharford]

Thanks RB I think I might be able to get some stainless so will try to get a cobalt drill in the meantime.

Brill. Bought a good range of different changeable heads and different handles four years ago. No regrets, use every day. It does pay to shop around. Try Ebay etc.

The range looks very impressive indeed.Which one would be best for removing weeds and grass?Which ones of the range are indispensible for an allotment ?

Thanks

[arugula]

The range looks very impressive indeed.

See my reply to you on the swoe thread.

hi have had wolf tools 20 years  cant beat them as for spares i use CENTRAL SPARES  wolf tools are now owned by E.Pbarrus theyre bringing in more of the range jezza

[Headgardener22]

I use the tools, the only problem I find is that for clay soil they tend not to be able to break up the soil much.
