Spear and Jackson Garden Tools

Spear and Jackson is a quintessentially British brand with a rich heritage dating back to 1760. Originally established in Sheffield, the heart of England's steel industry, the company began as a partnership between John Love and Alexander Spear. It has since become one of the most recognized names in garden, agricultural, and woodworking tools across the globe.

Today, the brand's manufacturing footprint is truly international. While design and innovation continue to be influenced by its British roots, production is handled in multiple countries—including the United Kingdom, China, and Taiwan—to maintain a balance of traditional craftsmanship and modern manufacturing efficiency. This global approach ensures their legendary steel tools reach professionals and enthusiasts worldwide.

Since 2004, Spear and Jackson has been owned by the Neill Tools Group, which was subsequently acquired by the Hong Kong-based multinational conglomerate, United Pacific Industries. This ownership structure has provided the capital and global supply chain necessary for the brand to expand its product lines while maintaining the ISO-standard quality associated with its Sheffield heritage. Despite its international ownership, the brand remains a symbol of British engineering excellence.
