Effortless Honey Uncapping: OZ Armour Jumbo 13 cm Stainless Steel Uncapping Fork

The OZ Armour Jumbo Uncapping Needle/Fork is a premium honey harvesting tool designed to make uncapping honeycomb easier and more efficient. With a 13 cm jumbo working width and sharp stainless steel needles, it helps open wax cappings across a wider area while reaching recessed sections that can be difficult to uncapp with a traditional knife.

The ergonomic design provides comfortable handling during honey harvesting, making it suitable for both hobbyist and experienced beekeepers. Explore OZ Armour for beekeeping equipment, protective clothing, hive hardware and other essentials for your apiary.

Wide 13 cm Coverage

The 13 cm jumbo size provides a broad working area, allowing you to cover more of the honeycomb with each pass. This can help reduce the time needed to prepare larger frames for extraction.

The wider design is particularly useful when working through multiple honey frames during harvest.

Sharp Stainless Steel Needles

The uncapping fork features sharp, evenly spaced stainless steel needles designed to pierce wax cappings while helping preserve the underlying comb structure.

The rigid stainless steel construction is also resistant to corrosion, making the tool suitable for repeated honey harvesting work.

Reach Sunken and Uneven Comb

Not every honeycomb surface is perfectly level. Sunken sections can be difficult to reach with a traditional uncapping knife, leaving capped cells behind.

The pointed needles can reach into these recessed areas, helping expose capped honey across more of the frame and making the fork a useful companion to other uncapping tools.

Comfortable Ergonomic Handle

The handle is designed to provide a firm and comfortable grip, giving you better control while working across honeycomb. This is especially useful during longer uncapping sessions when several frames need to be prepared.
