Garden trowel Fiskars 1014809

The Garden trowel Fiskars 1014809 is a hand tool designed for planting, digging and transferring soil.

With an overall length of 800 mm and an ergonomic grip, the trowel provides reach and control for a range of garden tasks while remaining lightweight and easy to handle.

Advantages

The construction pairs a corrosion-resistant steel working part with a reinforced plastic handle to balance strength and weight. The ergonomic handle profile reduces hand fatigue during prolonged use and improves grip stability in damp conditions. Its 800 mm length increases reach compared with shorter hand trowels, making it suitable for work in beds and borders without excessive bending.

Suitable for

• Planting bulbs, flowers and small shrubs
• Digging small holes and trenches in garden beds
• Transferring and leveling soil or compost
• Working in raised beds and along borders

Key specifications

How to use

Hold the trowel by the ergonomic handle with a firm but comfortable grip. Position the blade where you need to dig or transfer soil, then apply controlled downward pressure and lever the blade to create a hole or loosen compacted earth. For planting, dig a hole of the appropriate depth for the plant, place the root ball or bulb, and backfill using the trowel to pack soil around roots. Clean soil from the blade after use to maintain performance and reduce corrosion.

Usage recommendations

The tool is intended for typical garden soil and light to moderate tasks; avoid using it on large rocks or heavy excavation. Store in a dry place and regularly remove dirt and moisture from the metal parts to prolong service life.
