Sharpr NZ

Not just a thing of beauty - but super useful too! The Lucano step stools allow you to reach all the important stuff, like books.....and high cupboards containing things we need to keep out of reach of the kids.....like wine glasses, hidden sweets and gin bottles........

Did you know have 4 different types of Okatsune Snips. Each designed for their own use, but each with the same sharpness, durability, and quality craftsmanship. Okatsune snips give clean, precise cuts without crushing stems or mangling soft growth and their lightweight design makes them comfortable to use for longer periods. The high-quality Japanese steel holds an edge exceptionally well and they are considered one of the best options for gardeners, florists, veggie gardens, greenhouse work, and general garden maintenance. If you haven't experienced an Okatsune snip, you really should. And if you have, you need to let everyone else know about them...

Coming soon to - a very limited amount of the all-new Silky Takibi, a pocket size campfire.

In Japanese, Takibi means "“open-air fire,” commonly referring to a bonfire or outdoor fire used for warmth, cooking, or burning garden refuse. And Silky have said this about their new little friend...

"Don’t call us 'rejects.' At Silky, our quality standards are borderline obsessive. A fraction of a millimeter of warping, a single microscopic scratch—and our journey to becoming a saw is instantly cut short. Normally, we’d be tossed straight into the furnace to melt into nothingness. But someone spoke up: 'There’s no way in hell we’re letting this high-carbon steel die like that.' So, we evolved. From blades that cut, into a shield that holds the fire: pocket takibi—the ultra-compact campfire gear.

• Scratches are Badges of Honor: Scuffs and raw surface textures aren't defects—they’re proof we survived the brutal selection process. Season them dark and rugged in your own campfires.
• Strictly Limited Run: We only exist because of the steel that didn't make the cut. No factory line, no mass production. Just pure, accidental exclusivity.

We refused the scrap heap. Now, let us burn bright in your pocket."

Keep an eye out for these when they arrive in NZ. They'll go quick!

We had a great time at the "Big Night In" last week. The crowds grew and the prize draws were eagerly awaited. We had a few Silky Outback Bigboy Saws and Lowe Hunting Shears up for grabs, and the young customer who took a prize away was stoked, especially after she'd already come by the stand and asked about the wood and bone cutting tools. Awesome night, thanks for asking us to be part of it ...

There is over $16,000 worth of prizes to be given away at the 2026 Hunting & Fishing Nelson Big Night In. Head along, get yourself into the draws and have a look at what's on offer. And we'll be there from 4pm showing off our Silky and Lowe products...

Wayne is definitely a fan of his new Silky Zubat Sheath Saw! Recently we received this product review; "The experience of using this Silky tool restores my faith that there are companies and craftspeople that resist mediocrity. The ability to create an object that is so capable and durable challenges description. My introduction to Silky was a pole saw and it exceeded my expectations by so much I had to purchase another saw that I could use more often. If you get to use one of these daily, that must be nice."

Thanks Wayne. We totally agree...
