Gardening Tools for Every Job

MTN Shop stocks 650 gardening tools from Faithfull, Roughneck, Bulldog, Fiskars, Bahco, Estwing, Hultafors, Hozelock and Kent & Stowe, covering digging, cutting, raking and watering. Unlike petrol or battery garden machinery, these are manual tools built for durability through repeated seasonal use.

Shovels, Spades and Digging Tools

Choosing between a shovel and a spade comes down to the job: a round-point shovel, such as the Roughneck Sharp Edge Round Shovel, is built for lifting and moving loose material, while a flat spade, like the Fiskars Xact™ Pointed Spade, is better suited to edging and cutting through turf or compacted soil. For utility work, the Bulldog Insulated Cable Laying Shovel and Roughneck Sharp Edge Posthole Digger 1.46m cover specialist digging tasks like laying cable safely near live services or setting fence posts.

Axes and Splitting Tools

For felling and splitting, the difference between an axe and a hatchet is mainly reach and weight: a splitting axe, such as the Fiskars Solid™ A26 Splitting Axe 2.5kg, is built for processing firewood with a longer handle for more swing force, while a hatchet, like the Roughneck FSC® American Hickory Hatchet 600g, suits one-handed kindling and general camp use. The Bahco Standard Hand Axe HGPS and Estwing Black Eagle Double Bit Axe cover general-purpose felling and clearing work. For felling larger trees instead of splitting logs by hand, see our powered Chainsaws range.

Pruning Tools and Saws

For trees and shrubs beyond secateur range, the Fiskars PowerGear™ Tree Pruner extends reach without a ladder, using a gear mechanism for higher cutting force with less hand effort than a standard pole pruner. Our pruning saw range covers branch removal where secateurs can't get a clean cut, and billhooks such as the Faithfull Countryman Bill Hook handle hedge-laying and coppicing work. For trimming hedges rather than individual branches, see our Hedge Trimmers range.

Rakes for Lawn, Soil and Landscaping

A leaf rake, such as the Fiskars Classic Large Leaf Rake, has flexible tines for clearing debris without damaging turf, while a soil rake, like the Roughneck Sharp-Edge Soil Rake, has rigid tines for levelling and breaking up ground before seeding. For larger landscaping jobs, the Roughneck Aluminium Landscape Rake is available in 600mm and 900mm widths to cover ground faster. Once the ground is prepped, see our Lawn Mowers range to maintain it.

Watering and Hose Equipment

Hozelock's hose reel and sprayer range covers watering for gardens of any size, from compact wall-mounted reels to freestanding cart systems, alongside replacement parts such as lances, triggers and fittings for existing sprayers, so a single worn part doesn't mean replacing the whole unit.

Sharpening and Tool Care

A sharp edge matters as much as the tool itself: the Fiskars Xsharp™ Axe & Knife Sharpener keeps blades in usable condition between seasons, extending the working life of axes, hatchets and pruning tools rather than needing early replacement.

Warranty and Standards

All gardening tools sold by MTN Shop are genuine stock, sourced through official UK distribution, so full manufacturer warranty applies as it would from the brand directly. Roughneck and Fiskars hickory-handled axes are certified FSC®, confirming the wood is sourced from responsibly managed forests.

Choosing the Right Gardening Tool

For repeated seasonal use, a forged steel head with a full-tang or socket fitting generally outlasts a tool with a riveted or bolted head, which can work loose over time. If you're clearing a large area or working with heavier material, prioritise a longer handle for more leverage; for detail work in flower beds, a shorter-handled tool gives more control.
