Sneeboer Step Edger

The integrated steps allow you to use your body weight to drive the blade into the soil. This provides extra leverage, making it much easier to slice through thick turf or compacted edges compared to flat-topped edgers.

The stainless steel is highly resistant to rust and corrosion, which is essential for a tool that spends its life in damp soil. Because it is hand-forged, the metal is dense and durable, allowing it to maintain a sharp edge through years of regular use.

While the solid Ash handle is chosen for its strength and shock-absorbing properties, it is a natural material. If the handle were to eventually fail, it can be replaced by a skilled woodworker or through professional tool repair services, allowing you to keep the forged blade in service for decades.

To keep the edger performing at its best, you can periodically hone the blade with a sharpening stone or file to remove any nicks from rocks. Always clean the blade after use and store it in a dry place to ensure the longevity of both the steel and the wood handle.
