Spear and Jackson four-tine Manure Fork with socket

This 4-tine manure fork from Spear & Jackson is a great essential garden tool for preparing the garden soil before sowing and planting, from the physical work of the soil to the spreading of compost or manure. It is also a sturdy and durable tool, made from quality materials: its long handle is made of ash wood, renowned for its strength, it has a reinforced socket and a steel head with 4 sharp tines.

The garden fork, formerly called a manure fork, was originally used to spread manure in the fields. This tool resembles a fork, but its steel tines were bent at the base before being tempered, forming a 90° angle with the handle. It is now sometimes referred to as a garden claw and can be used in both ornamental gardens and vegetable gardens, in spring or autumn, preferably on soil that is not too wet or compact. This tool allows you to:

• "hook" the soil to a depth of about 20 cm.
• air the soil, make it looser, flexible and light.
• rake its surface by making back-and-forth movements.
• break up clods of soil.
• level and smooth the soil after digging, just before sowing or planting.
• carry, transport and spread compost or manure. Incorporate it into the surface of the soil by scratching.
• collect all types of plant debris to clean the soil.
• cover furrows after sowing, as it prevents the accumulation of stones unlike a rake with closer teeth.
• can be used to harvest potatoes.
