Swiss-style Gertl Krafts, incl. free sharpening stone - hand-forged in Germany

Looking for sturdy, durable and functional tools?
Then you will certainly find what you are looking for in our ‘Krafts’ range.

There are plenty of garden tools out there, but garden tools of this quality are quite rare.
The tools were made by experienced craftsmen in one of Europe’s oldest family businesses. And when we talk about experience, we mean it. Over 200 years of experience speaks for itself when it comes to quality. Every tool was made by hand, with a special focus on sustainability. For garden tools that really last! Yes, they are back, the good old hand-forged tools. ‘Krafts’ stands for robustness and durability, not mass-produced goods. No plastic. No chemicals. No cheap sheet metal.

By experienced craftsmen, for experienced craftsmen. A tool that brings the old crafting tradition of the blacksmithing guild back to life.

Warning: 18 years or older! This product contains sharp tools or knives and is therefore not intended for persons under the legal minimum age. Handling these tools requires special care and expertise.

A traditional blacksmith’s shop with over 200 years of experience makes these wonderful tools by hand. The family-run blacksmith’s shop has the particularly high standard of producing extremely durable tools that are optimally suited for working. High-quality steel and ash wood were used. By working at very
high temperatures, the steel can be shaped easily, and material waste is avoided.
The value-oriented production also makes a major contribution to our environment.
A nice side effect is that the tools are also beautiful to look at. Not only durable, high-quality and functional, but also extremely aesthetic  - tools made for working. ‘Krafts’ does not stand for mass-produced goods, but for high-quality, and above all durable tools that make working a pleasure!
