I'm looking for manufacturers of high quality gardening tools (trowels,
spades, forks, etc.). Having spent many frustrating years dealing with
tools made from cheap metal or just poorly designed I've decided to only
purchase tools that I can expect to become an antique in time. This may
equate to drop forged steel, handles made from special hardwoods, etc. Can
anybody steer me in the right direction?

Thanks,
kh
