> 24 hourMy first knife went missing after many years of great use. I missed having it and had to order another one. Great for weeding, cutting back plants, dividing, digging small holes for bulbs and countless other garden tasks. Makes a great gift for new homeowners/gardeners. Worth every penny.

> 24 hourI am a person that does not have a lot of hand strength and this is a tool that makes the heavier garden jobs possible for me. Splitting hard to divide plants got a whole lot easier. Highly recommend.

> 24 hourIf you only had one tool for your garden, this is the one to have. I have had other Hori Hori knives in the past. This is my favorite so far. It is a good weight, comfortable to grip and feels very solid. The shaft of the blade goes all the way up the handle, so it wont break like some of the others I have had. I am a happy gardener.

> 24 hourIve read reviews by other professional gardeners and landscapers and can really only reiterate. I used an A.M. Leonard soil knife (the classic model) working for a landscaping company for 3 years (and it probably wasnt new when I got it). When I left landscaping, I could no longer enter my backyard without wishing I still had it. Such a sturdy digger/pryer. I do recall feeling it start to bend one time, but I dont remember which completely stupid misuse I was trying at the time. Perhaps stuffing a rock under it as a fulcrum and stepping or jumping on it to pull up a wood form around concrete--that kind of stupid. I also saw plenty of dirty A.M. soil knives, knives at the bottom of toolboxes exposed to the elements, but no terribly rusty ones. My old classic model one wasnt great for cutting, I always carried a razor knife and pruners for cutting. However the deluxe model I bought for home use cuts much better. Maybe due to it being new, but the serrated side seems way better than I remember on the old classic. I even use it like a machete (the serrated side surprisingly) to chop up non-woody plants. I dont care for the twine cutting notch in this deluxe model (Ive cut myself on it several times and twine zero times--besides the serrated side can cut twine). I could grind that dull, if I really wanted it gone. The inch markings are nice too have.
