I love garden tools…so much so that I probably have about 40 in my shed right now. But as a beginner, you only need about 3 – a cutting tool, digging tool, and watering tool. As you expand your garden, you may want to get into long-handled tools or specialty tools, so I’ve also included those in this video. At the end, a bit of a bonus on how I sharpen my tools to keep them working for years and years.

I would love the hose video! I am looking to upgrade and would find it very helpful.
Quite tall and somewhat lazy? Same
The bypass pruners are for live plants/cuts, and the anvil style are for dead plants/cuts. A bypass will give your plant a clean cut where as an anvil style will crush the cut.
How do you sharpen the corona saw that at the end of the video
I have one of those from Corona tools but how to sharpen them.?
Thanks
Curious how you manage to get those perfectly flat raised bed surfaces. Do you use the bow rake for this?
Snow shovels work great for light materials as well.
I have tons of leaves in the Fall, and am wondering why you called them gardener's gold. Thanks!
I'm sure you will find amazing woodworking plans on Woodprix.
Nice video! I love garden tools, chinese tea ware, and musical instruments! My tips: Go with biointensive beds and opt for a square shovel for digging those. Include a digging fork or broad fork
I love garden tools. I love the wheel Barrell and the oscillating hoe. The sharpen is very handy. i need to get one of those. I could probably use it in the kitchen as well. Your video makes me want to go out and get all the tools. I am sure I could find some use for them. Thanks.
What do you use to build your wood raised beds and also what about those tall metal ones?
the most impressive item is the bypass hand pruner. that said Lets play. How many of these tools have never been used Before. this whole video is full of products from a company whos product sits on the shelf because of its overpriced nature. I work at a store whose corona tool display is covered in dust because of the fact its over priced china manufactured items. I would personally like to know if the epic gardening expert would have went out and personally bought these tools? I doubt it.

we also have 5 of these sitting there covered in dust.
6:00 fake cough spade
Don't forget gloves..and maybe a hat.
Some one gave me a pair of Corona pruners. Never heard of the brand nor did the person who gave them to me. When I researched the brand I was surprised that somebody would give away these pruners. Pruners had a ding, must have been used to cut wire. I was able to file it down and they work fine. Great tool for anyone with arthritis in their hands.
'Corona' tools in 2021 .. Really? 😛
Very good information. Thanks for sharing.
I bought the corona tools that costco has. Its not their highest end stuff but its still very nice. I cant justify Corona shovels at $150+ each. The search is on for a USA made quality shovel. I'd prefer wood handles
I have had horrible luck my garden hoses! I can't spend the money on the hoselink at this time, but is there a middle of the road hose that doesn't burst after a month or two of use?
Can we see the inside of your shed and how you organize? Or do you just throw everything in there?
The fork is the only essential tool that no one knows saves your back and mind. Trying to shovel mulch out of those 1 cubic yard bags with a shovel is almost impossible and takes forever. The fork saves a lot of work when working with wood mulch piles.
Please share where you get the raised metal beds

Why you going to name a tool after a virus?
