An early champion of user-friendly design, Fiskars tackles your toolshed.
“We have a saying here that even the simplest things can be made better or smarter,” says Steve Stokes, a design engineer at Fiskars. The Finnish company, which dates from 1649, was a pioneer of user-friendly design and is best known for its ergonomic scissors and small tools. Its latest products take that high-performance approach to two unexpected products: gardening blades and hammers.
