Review: Great little tool that every household should have one - I really enjoy this small weeding tool as it is small and light, but very sharp with solid build and design. I am using it to digging the tree root out and so helpful.
Review: You’ll come up with more uses for it than you can imagine - This is a must have for pretty much anyone who has their hands in the dirt. It’s great for weeding and planting in gardens. Also I had to hand trench a water line in a craw space and this thing made it so much faster than the little shovels I was using. It’s freaking SHARP so you have to be careful with the blade

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not for lefties
*by F***T on September 11, 2021*

This thing is great! It completely exceeded my expectations! I've been slacking on weeding since the weather got so hot and humid over the summer but this is a game changer. It very easily gets down to the roots for easy pull up. The blade is sharp enough to cut what has grown high before pulling it out at the root. It would be perfect for creating little seed trenches as well. Two things I would improve on, it only works well using your right hand. My right side was pretty tired but it doesn't work well using the left hand, maybe centering the handle so it could be used with either hand would be helpful. The other improvement is adding some sort of ergonomic grip, the handle is wood with no cushioning, my hand was sore and tired fairly quickly.
