Garden Fork - A perfectly proportioned Sneeboer stainless steel border fork, hand-forged in the finest stainless-steel and individually shaped, polished and sharpened by hand before being fitted with a fine quality ash handle. Sneeboer have always produced gardening forks with flat face tines and a 'V' shaped back in contrast to most forks which tend to be square or round.
• Overall garden fork length 113cm • Head width 15cm, • Each flat tine 1.5cm wide and tines are 20cm long
The Sneeboer Garden Fork is made of the finest hand-forged stainless steel, with an ash handle. It comes with unique, sharpened, flat-faced tines that I found really useful when trying to dig out roots and work a very heavy soil. I would find one of these very handy. The fork is 113cm long with a head of 15cm, and weighs just under 4lb.

It’s an intriguing tool and would certainly be versatile. I’m a little concerned that there is only a staple holding the T-handle in place. The protruding shaft rivets may damage hands, though the handle is so long your hands are likely to be kept away from the head when working. It isn’t cheap but if the look and feel of your tools is important and you’re tall like me then this may be your choice.

Verdict: This traditional Dutch hand-forged fork has a small stainless steel head with wide, flat, pointed tines designed to slice through soil more easily than thin tines. The extra-long wooden shaft ends in a small T-handle. While this fork looks fairly utilitarian, it is lightweight and surprisingly easy to use. However, it is much more expensive than the other forks tested. Rating: 4* Forks to Dig - We test 5 of the best so you don't have to!, Garden News, 9 June 2009
