A.M. Leonard Deluxe Soil Knife, Orange – Hori Hori w/ 6-Inch Stainless Steel Blade

it works fin e for weed removal

Best tool in the garden

No dislikes. This tool is with me whoever I garden. Easy to use.

My favorite garden tool! I use it for all of my planting and especially appreciate its ability to quickly cut through roots in my perennial beds. Beware, though, the serrated edge is sharp!

This thing cuts through grass and other small roots like a knife - because it is a knife. It still didnt need sharpening but I would imagine that it will take some time to sharpen the serated side of the knife.

There are all kinds of competitors out there. I selected this because of the stainless steel blade, orange plastic handle and commercial grade robust construction. It is not the most elegant on the market, but it is solid, practical, hard to misplace and if it does get left outside, it will not get trashed by the weather. Im an amateur woodworker so I honed the edge and polished the blade face to dress it up before presenting it to my wife. She wasnt sure what to think when I first gave it to her, Two weeks later, it doesnt leave her side. She uses it for everything including culling weeds, pot plants, trim suckers and small branches, and cut twine. Yesterday, she said it was the most considerate gift Ive given her, so i told her I intend to return the diamond earrings she got for her birthday!!!

This soil knife is one of those tools that meet and exceed expectations. I find it to be an indispensable tool in doing gardening and landscaping maintenance. The serrated blade makes short work of soil bag access, as well as roots of all types. It is amazing at the size of stones that it is able to dislodge. The bright colored handle also makes it easy to spot. This is my third purchase of this item two of which I have given away as gifts.

Purchased for husbands work. Cant find these in stores anymore. Arrived very quickly! Hes very happy with them.

These are so great for planting bulbs, planting, digging up or transplanting perennials and slicing through root balls when planting anything containerized. Orange handles help keep them from getting lost. Love the serrated edge and sturdy construction. I cant live without this tool. These were a good value for the money as well. AM Leonard is a great brand too.

I was first introduced to this tool at my work. As a professional gardener this knife makes weeding and deadheading a dream, cuts through the ground like butter, great for edging beds, cutting through massive amounts of over grown grass away from the bed edges. I love this tool. But I did not buy this for myself. After weeks of telling my mother about this product, I got it for her for Mothers Day. As soon as the weather cleared, she was outside in her garden, having a blast just ripping through the weeds with ease. She spring cleaned her beds in record time.
