Great Landscaping Tool

For new landscapes or maintaining old ones, this tool makes all the difference! It cuts through roots in no time, doing what a spade can't do. I'm a 68 yr old woman and recommend this so you work smarter not harder!

root slayer shovel

very awesome item. It's easy to use to get small roots out . I wish it came with a leather sheath due to the sharpness of the saw and blade.
