Fiskars Garden Tools

Fiskars Garden Tools was not actually established in 1649, but at that time Dutch merchants established a blast furnace in the settlement of Fiskars, located in western Finland. Eventually the village became famous for the quality of their products. Today's Fiskars Garden Tools is located in Madison, Wisconsin, but the company strives to develop the same quality of products, produced for a small town and with great attention to detail. Fiskars Garden Tools states that their motivation in making a simple garden pruner is to visualize old hedges from centuries ago – products that creators took great pride in, not that were mass manufactured.

Looking For Fiskars Products

What kind of Fiskars Garden Tools can you find online? Fiskars Garden Tools are organized into four major categories: Fiskars cutters, which includes axes, floral snips, grass shears, hand pruners and loppers; Fiskars landscaping tools, which includes cultivating and digging tools; and Fiskars garden tool maintenance and parts, which includes brooms, rakes and other miscellaneous products.

Fiskars garden “sissors” are listed among the other cutters, and include such products as the Soft Touch Micro-Tip Pruning Snip and the Comfort-Grip Floral Snip. Fiskars shears include both grass shears, like the Extended Reach line, as well as the Shear Ease, as well as larger head shears, like the Powel-Level Hedge line, and the Powel-Level Gator Blade. Fiskars high performance shears, such as the Gator model, features patented serrations, carbon steel blades, tubular handles, shock absorbing bumbers and self sharpening blades.

Fiskars also has garden trimmers, Fiskars pruning sticks and Fiskars folding spades. The garden spade comes pre-sharpened, with an oval shaped handle for comfortable use, and a unique teardrop shaft that is easy to grip. The product's longer handle helps to improve posture and reduces back pain that might be involved with stooping or bending. It is also powder coated for rust prevention.

Fiskars garden sets are a good buy, considering that they sell you five tools for a discounted price. For example, a five piece set may feature a trowel for scooping soil and digging, a transplanter to determine planting depth and digging out deep roots, a cultivator for loosening mulch and to pull weeds, a bulb transplanter to release ground and a kneeling cushion to protect your knees from hard, rough or cold surfaces.
