Nisaku Japanese Stainless Steel Weeding Knife, 7.25-inch Blade, Hori Hori Namibagata

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] LOVE these knives! Where I live, we have the mother of all weeds, especially Canadian thistle, which has roots to the other side of the world! These knives work great (bought 2, then someone lost one, then bought one more). It is a gardener's dream - just stab the earth close to the stem of the weed, going straight down (not at an angle), then with a bit of writs motion, give it a good half twist, and out comes the weed, roots and all. Of course, it is easier when the soil is damp, but even in dry soil, it works great. Personally, I find it a fantastic alternative to undesirable weed-killers. The blade is strong, and will not rust, not even if you forget it in the element for a while.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a amazing knife. It is a robust tool. Having the measurement right on the blade is perfect to set seeds in the same depth every time! The knife is sharp so the holder is a must. The handle has a good grip and being wood will not slip out of our hand. The concave blade has a beveled sharp edge and a serrated opposite edge for all your gardening needs. No more need for multiple tools here.
