Product Description

Effectively a rubber (or ‘eraser’ to our North American friends), the Clean Mate is an essential part of your maintenance kit to help you keep your tools in tip top condition, year in year out.

Simply add a little water and rub away the rust and sap before you sharpen. Keep a rag handy to wipe off the resulting muck, then protect your newly cleaned blades with a little Camelia oil.

It’s not just for garden tools – you can clean up any rusty, mucky carbon steel with this clever little object.

Best usage

  • Wet the Clean Mate before use.
  • Keep a pot of water handy to keep re-wetting, and use a rag to wipe away muck as you go.
Niwaki translates from Japanese as “garden tree” and reflects the brand’s roots in traditional Japanese gardening. Founded by Jake Hobson after time spent working in Japan, Niwaki brings thoughtfully designed tools into Western gardens, with a focus on precision, balance and longevity.
