Three-piece Japanese set for fast digging, weeding and planting
This curated set brings together three complementary Japanese tools chosen to handle everyday soil preparation, from slicing weeds to loosening ground and planting accurately. It includes a Banshu weeding sickle, a one-handed stainless fork and mattock, and a compact Bonsai Hori Hori.
Forged in Miki, Hyogo Prefecture and dispatched from Perth, this bundle is suited to beds, rows and pots across Australian gardens. Move from surface weeding to soil work and planting without swapping to bulky tools.
The Banshu sickle uses Yasugi high carbon steel for clean pull cuts. The fork and mattock head is forged from stainless steel for impact strength and corrosion resistance. The Bonsai Hori Hori uses carbon steel for a keen working edge and dependable toughness.
Brush off soil, dry each blade and apply a light coat of oil to the carbon steel components after use. Build out your kit with Japanese digging tools and Japanese sickles and weeders.
Tip: Slice weeds at the crown with the sickle, break crusted soil with the mattock, then use the Hori Hori blade length as a depth guide for consistent planting.
