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

I use this product for working my flower beds

Sturdy shaft extends into the handle and the blade works for the toughest jobs in my Rick and clay soil

Love this knife - much easier to use when digging than a hand trowel. I use this to dig holes for small transplants and to dig weeds from slitty places like between patio stones or between two plants. The serrated side works great to cut off the bottom 1/4 of a root-bound pot before planting, and to cut in-ground roots when digging planting holes. I carry my hand tools in a small garden trug and I now reach for this first when planting, instead of the hand trowel. Orange handle makes it easy to spot when you leave it on the ground somewhere. My uncle loved it too, and ordered one after trying mine. Highly recommend this tool. Its also available with a leather sheath, if you wear a belt while gardening.

It’s not as traditional looking as the wood handle Japanese hori hori I previously used. But the bright orange handle should assure I don’t lose this one in the garden like the wood one. The serrated edge helps cut stubborn roots.

great for weeding, planting. I use it all the time. I bought the leather holster too, but stopped wearing it.

This is my favorite gardening tool. It is fantastic for weeding, the hook allows me to cleanly cut through dead flower stalks, etc without reaching for my pruners and the serrated edge is great when you dont have a saw handy. Fantastic all-in-one!

Love this hori hori.

Gardening, works for digging and cutting.

I love this knife. It was recommended to me by my neighbor who sees me in the garden all the time. Its very sturdy. It cuts for edging and is great at pulling up dandelions! I love the orange handle so I can see it easily if Ive set it down. A must for gardening. Make sure you buy the deluxe soil knife. The regular one isnt as sharp!

For what this knife costs, and the fact that it is high quality Italian Steel, I would have expected more from the handle. The cheap orange plastic looks and feels cheap. I already have the knife at a professional woodshop getting a custom handle.
