Hori Hori Garden Knife, Garden Tools with Sheath for Weeding,Planting,Digging, 7" Stainless Steel Blade with Cutting Edge, Full-Tang Wood Handle with Hanging Hole

Absolutely love this tool!!! Solid, well made and easy to use. I have small hands and it's comfortable for me to hold even. I love how it has a depth gage on the blade and it's very versatile too. Not your average trowel that's for sure! I love that it's all a solid piece too unlike the one I seen at the store made by fisker. It was welded and had a plastic handle for about the same price too. This was well worth the few extra bucks!! The sheath makes it safe and stylish, and the features are an added bonus. Can use to plant, cut roots when digging and even has a saw to get the volunteer trees. You cannot ask for a more functional tool!

This hori hori is great value for the money. The full tang blade is thick and has a nice weight to it. It works well in clay soil and feels very solid. The wood handle is very comfortable and well finished with a nice, smooth exterior. For the price, it is an excellent value so I bought a second one.

This is such a nice garden tool! It’s heavy-duty and feels sturdy. The knife edges are perfect for cutting hard-to-reach veggies like zucchini, and the shovel made digging up garlic bulbs a quick and easy process. The sheath is great for keeping everything clean, as well as making it easy to carry.

This garden knife is both tough and SHARP! It works great at weeding and some trimming tasks. I used it to remove some weeds and excess sod around my lawn irrigators. It cut right through the sod and made it easy to remove. Just don't stab it deep into the ground and attempt to use it as a pry bar since it wasn't intended for that use. Cut the soil / weed loose in a circle, then simply lift it out.

We moved into a house with extremely compacted clay soil. I occasionally questioned if I wasn't digging over some shallow buried concrete or pavers from someone's previous project because tools just would not push into the soil but nope, the soil is just that hard. I bent a few trowels meant for digging in rocky soils so I decided to upgrade.This is the only garden tool I can shove into the ground here without having to use something I can stand on to push it down. I've used it to leverage old, 2' long cement pavers that had sunken down into the ground and become encased in the clay. I dug over 1' down in an area that river rock had been dumped over top of the old rock year after year as it sank down and became a part of the compacted clay. It's narrow enough to make a slice in the lawn and remove the roots of weeds like oriental bittersweet or small pest trees without killing the surrounding grass.The edge is more than sharp enough to cut yourself and many sturdy but not older, woody plant stems that you don't care how neatly it's cut. It is not a fine knife blade. It wouldn't stay sharp long being shoved in the ground and possibly against rocks and landscaping materials if it was. If I want to frequently and cleanly cut something I buy a knife or specific cutting tool and keep the edges oiled and sanded to make a neater, easier cut.The edge on this is most useful for shoving into and cutting along roots or digging hard ground. Along with easily sliding into nearly any soil it can tear through a good sized taproot relative to how small the tool is and cut through tangled masses of roots in overgrown areas. It is not a complete replacement for pruning shears or a good pocket knife when you need to make careful cuts in a plant. None of those are meant for shoving into soil regularly without rusting and will take damage if they encounter too hard of material.If I hit rock or metal while cutting something with my pocket knife I often have to go remove the burr and eventually put a new edge on it. I also have to make sure to clean any soil and source of moisture off tools with a sharp edge to avoid rust. By not having a very fine edge this tool will still cut into tough plant matter or compacted and rocky soil the same as before you ran the edge down that landscaping stone you didn't realize was that close, find there's concrete farther out from that post than planned, or hit the bottom of the chainlink fence. I've also left it sit a few days with wet soil on it before I wiped it off and not had it rust any. Inevitably garden tools eventually get forgotten prior to a rainstorm at some point in their lifespan (probably several times) so rust resistance greatly reduces effort when people are too tired or hot from yard chores to remember every tool or clean everything off right away.Maintenance is reduced while being suitable for it's purpose and also reducing how badly you cut yourself if it does hit something and stop. Digging in our compacted soil full of mystery items from past concrete post settings, decorative rock areas, a myriad of buried landscaping pavers and boulders, and lots of half broken down landscaping timbers the fact it won't send you to the ER if your hands end up in the way when it gets stopped or deflected by something is a good thing.The notched area supposedly for use as a bottle open seems pointless but hasn't caused any problems. I have decided it's existence can be completely ignored and overlooked.

Looks and works great.

This is making such a difference in my hours and days working around the yard. It is so sturdy and fits my hand so well it is comfortable to use and saves me a lot of time when weeding and planting. Wish I had it long ago and will be giving this as gifts to new homeowners.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this Hori gardening tool! It works well for digging up weeds, digging holes, planting… everything! Great quality & SUPER GOOD PRICE if you get it during prime days ( which I didn’t). Great quality item!!!
