DescriptionFeedback

Tuza has an ash shaft and a heavy-duty, work-hardened bronze head. As Merak is our alternative to the conventional garden fork, Tuza is the Austrian equivalent of the garden spade. Whereas with a spade, the gardener pushes and lifts the soil, with Tuza gravity works for us. The gardener lifts the mattock, lets it drop and it cuts into the soil with the sharp cutting edge, then pulls the clod away to form a trench. This is a more efficient way of working than pushing-and-lifting tools, and kinder to the gardener's body from an ergonomic point of view.
