About us
The Weedwakka was invented by Peter Thorne in the early 1990s out of frustration with using nylon cord. He was equally unimpressed with the steel blade that was supplied with his new brushcutter, and he figured that there had to be a better way. Peter’s small engineering company in Gundaroo, just outside Canberra, soon made a dramatic change of direction as he entered full time Weedwakka development and production.
The design evolved through a number of different models until the current Heavy Duty model was born. This proved to be a robust and effective cutter of all types of weeds, and was soon followed by the MultiCut Weedwakka as the long awaited alternative to the dreaded nylon cord.
Peter’s inventions were taken to the Geneva Inventions Expo, back in 1998. The Weedwakka won the Gold Medal in the Agricultural category, proving that Aussie enginuity could cut it on the world stage.
Today, Weedwakka remains a proudly Australian family business. Peter’s son David now runs the company, as Peter now prefers to play with his boat than make Weedwakkas.

The Weedwakka fits onto a brushcutter in exactly the same way as a conventional steel blade, so if your battery brushcutter will take a blade, it will also take a Weedwakka. Most battery brush cutters are not blade compatible, but some models are. These tend to be the high end, high quality brush cutters, and a Weedwakka can be fitted to these machines very effectively. Check the manual for your particular machine regarding blade compatibility. Also check for decals on the shaft of the brushcutter. They usually have a decal indicating whether or not a blade can be fitted.

How long will a Weedwakka last?
A pack of 6 MultiCut blades would typically last most users for around 12 months, but if you are a serious user, we have bulk packs of 50 blades. The MultiCut unit itself will eventually wear out, but only after many years of use.
