Threw out all my other trowels today! (2010-07-30) : 5/5
At 62 years old, I found the best garden trowel in my gardening life. today I easily dug mature dandelions and burdock root! I also used the sharp edge to cut a stubborn shrub root under the soil--with ease. Buy one, well worth the money.

Great Tool (2010-07-20) : 5/5
This is a great, unique tool, basically unknown in Europe where I am located. It is rare to discover a really new, different garden tool. It has been very useful to me helping to unearth the tubes of the drip irrigation network which were entangled with the roots of the plants in the garden. A must have tool for a serious gardener.
Great!! (2010-07-13) : 5/5
Love this tool...very effective for digging out the weeds...and sharp enough to hack throough some smaller vines etc. It has good heft and you quickly master the most effective way of weed removal...using the saw blade edge to dig part way around and then lift...the Hori Hori is strong enough that you can really put some pressure(pry)on it.
This is the best gardening tool on the market! (2010-07-13) : 5/5
I recommend this Hori Hori knife to other gardeners every chance I get.
After I started using my Hori Hori I loved it so much I never went outside into the yard without it on my belt.
Every few steps I take it comes in handy. I love rearranging the plants and i'm always weeding. Now I just whip out the Hori Hori and dig up a plant, then use the knife to dig the new hole to replant. I'm always using it to remove weeds. I use it to cut the roots off the celery and lettuce before I bring them into the house. I use it to harvest vegetable from the stems.
Honestly I'm sure i've never had a gardening tool this useful. I bought one for my mother. I'm planning to buy another for a friend at church. It's the perfect gift.
This model is very sturdy and easy to keep clean. I keep this knife cleaner than I keep my car. It's the first time i've ever paid so much attention to keeping track of my tools. The rest of them are scattered around the property until they get tripped over.
I have not yet sharpened the blade. I think that might be a chore but it will need to be done at some point. I've used mine for a few months now and i'm assuming at the end of this season it'll need sharpening.
