What's Included:
CobraHead Weeder & Cultivator — Curved steel blade gets under weeds at the root without disturbing surrounding plants. Works equally well loosening compacted soil between rows or cleaning out walkway cracks.
Mont Blanc Japanese Garden Trowel (Pointed Blade) — Professionally sharpened edge cuts through clay rather than pushing through it. Built for precise planting holes, transplanting, and working in tight beds.
Nishigaki Japanese Pruning Shears — All-steel, spring-loaded shears with angled blades. Clean cuts up to 1¼" on herb stems, rose canes, tomato suckers, and small woody growth.
Hori Hori Carbon Steel Garden Knife — Dig, divide, cut roots, plant bulbs. The serrated edge handles fibrous roots and light branches. Includes sheath with belt loop.
Silky Pocket Boy 170 Folding Saw (Fine 20 TPI, Blue Handle) — When the pruning shears aren't enough. The 20 TPI fine-tooth blade handles small limbs and woody stems cleanly. Two locking positions — including a back-bent position — let you reach into tight canopy spaces. At 6¾" blade length, it's small enough for your back pocket on every garden walk.
Japanese Sickle (8" Blade) — A tool most gardeners have never used but won't want to put down. High-carbon steel blade, white oak handle, pinned construction. Built for cutting ornamental grasses, clearing saplings, and managing overgrown edges where a string trimmer would be overkill.
ARS Folding Florist Knife — Japanese-made stainless steel knife in the Sakai cutting tradition. Use it for grafting, taking cuttings, trimming fruit trees, or general vineyard and garden knife work. Compact at 4⅝" folded, 6" open.
Kusakichi Japanese Window Hoe — The hole in the blade isn't decorative — it lets soil pass through, dramatically reducing drag and user fatigue. Beveled edge breaks up compacted soil and cuts roots. Available in short (14") for kneeling work or long (47½") for standing use — specify your preference at checkout.
Bucket Boss Original Rigger's Bag — The bag that holds it all together. Based on open-top sailing totes, the Rigger's Bag is built from 24 oz. rigid canvas with a waterproof lining, triple-layered bottom, and 30 exterior pockets. At 17" wide with a large open main compartment, it fits every tool in this kit with room to spare. The original since 1991 — don't buy the knockoffs.
Why the Complete Kit? The Starter Kit covers everyday planting, weeding, and pruning. This kit adds the tools for the harder jobs — clearing overgrowth, working in tight canopy, cutting grasses and saplings, and fine knife work — plus the bag to carry and organize all of it. Whether you're maintaining an established property or tackling a full seasonal cleanup, this is the kit you reach for.
