Old Grubber handle
SharpAs Tool Tips
Another great tool from yesteryear. While the quality steel in a grubber will last indefinitely with proper care, the handles eventually wear out. With a new handle fitted and the steel refurbished, this grubber is now set to give many more years of service.
If you have old or new tools to restore — chisels, drills, utensils, knives, or other items needing sharpening or reconditioning — come and see me:
🔹 Redwood Market – Saturdays
🔹 Marlborough Farmers’ Market – Sundays
Or contact me directly on 027 444 5535.
Cheers,
