Hand Tools – Product list
Hand Tools for Trade and Site Work
MTN Shop stocks a wide range of hand tools from established trade brands including Faithfull, Hultafors, Stanley, Bahco, Roughneck, Estwing, Fiskars, Bulldog and DeWalt, covering everything from utility knives and chisels to shovels, pliers and hand saws. Unlike cordless power tools, these are manual tools with no battery or motor, built for durability and precision through repeated daily use.
DeWalt Hand Tools
Alongside cordless power tools, DeWalt also makes non-powered DeWalt hand tools, including the DeWALT Full Fit Screwdriver Set, 6 Piece. This DeWalt hand tool set uses a Full Fit design that maximises contact with the fastener head, reducing stripping and cam-out on repeated use, with hardened steel blades and magnetic tips for site work.
Cutting and Utility Knives
Our knife range spans retractable utility knives such as the Stanley 99E and SM18 Snap-Off Blade Knife, through to trade-specific designs including the Hultafors Craftsman's Knife HVK, Safety Knife SK and Mineral Wool Knife FGK for insulation work. For glazing and window fitting, the Faithfull Professional Window Knife Quarter Moon is purpose-built for the job.
Groundwork and Digging Tools
For excavation and site clearance, we stock a full range of shovels and spades from Roughneck and Faithfull, including sharp-edge round and square shovels, drainage shovels, and the Roughneck Sharp Edge Posthole Digger 1.46m. Insulated cable-laying shovels from Bulldog are built specifically for safe digging near live cables.
Chisels, Hammers and Striking Tools
The Hultafors HDCS4 Heavy-Duty Chisel Set (4 piece, 6-25mm) covers general woodworking and site chiselling, while the Roughneck Gorilla Block Buster™ Bolster handles masonry work. For striking tools, the Estwing E3/20C Curved Claw Hammer with a red vinyl grip is built for repeated daily use without loosening at the head, a common failure point on cheaper wood-handled hammers.
Pliers, Sockets and Mechanics Tools
Bahco's ERGO™ range, including the 8224 Slip Joint Pliers and the BE-9878SL VDE Insulated Screwdriver Set, covers general trade and electrical work, while the Bahco S460 Socket Set (46 piece, 1/4in drive) provides a complete metric socket range for mechanics and maintenance tasks.

Warranty and Standards
All hand 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. Insulated tools, such as Bahco's VDE range, are tested and certified to VDE and EN 60900 standards for safe use on live electrical work up to 1000V.
Choosing the Right Hand Tool
Manual hand tools remain essential even on sites with full cordless kits: a retractable knife, a set of pliers or a hand saw doesn't need charging and works in situations where a power tool is impractical or unsafe, such as near live electrics or in confined spaces. For repeated daily use, tools with forged steel construction and full-tang designs, such as the Estwing hammer range, generally outlast cheaper stamped or riveted alternatives.
