About this item

Product details

The Root Slayer 2.0 Garden Edger with Ergonomic O-Handle (RS226-001) is a heavy-duty manual lawn edger engineered to create clean, defined landscape borders while powering through tough sod, compact soil, and stubborn roots. Designed for homeowners and professional landscapers alike, it delivers precise edging performance that helps keep lawns, flower beds, and walkways looking neat and well maintained. Its durable powder-coated steel blade features aggressive serrated root-cutting teeth and the signature Root Slayer inverted V-shaped cutting tip, allowing it to penetrate dense ground and slice through roots that often stop conventional half-moon edgers. The precision blade geometry makes it easy to create both straight edging lines and smooth curved borders around sidewalks, driveways, planting beds, and landscape features. The ergonomic O-Handle provides a secure, comfortable grip with excellent leverage and control, helping reduce hand and wrist fatigue while making edging more efficient. A reinforced steel shaft delivers the durability needed for demanding landscaping projects, while the rugged cutting design eliminates the need for additional tools when cutting through roots and sod. Ideal for edging lawns, defining garden beds, removing overgrown turf, cutting shallow trenches, and maintaining landscape borders, the Root Slayer 2.0 Garden Edger combines precision, durability, and ergonomic comfort to help you achieve professional-quality results with every use. Warranty: Lifetime warranty (continental U.S. only).

Back saver

Lot better than a straight 6-8” wide shovel. Slices thru soil %26 roots very consistently %26 don't need the jarring moves that hurt an already hurting back. Happy with RS226, it does what I purchased it for very well.

Effortless Edging!!

This thing slices through my turf like butter, and I can't jam a shovel into the ground an inch without slamming into rocks. You usually have to work it around a bit to work your way into the soil. I have a lot of 1" and up sized rocks on my property so this tool surprised the heck out of me when I stepped on it and it buried to the step edge. It's expensive but it's worth it. Work smarter, not harder. Took me 67 years to learn. Lol.
