Handy Weeder Tool

• 5" x 1-5/8" Flat Blade
• Edges & Crack Cleanout
• Welded Square Steel Tang 
• Compact & Lightweight 

Handy Weeder Tool is a small, tough weeder/cultivator that reaches nooks and crannies for quick cleanup. Used flat to the ground, the 5-inch blade skims just under the surface and slices weeds off cleanly at the soil line. Tip it on edge and those pointed ends become a narrow digger for loosening bed edges or cleaning out cracks between pavers where wider tools can’t reach. We use it for routine touch-ups in beds and along walkways after tiring of crouching with a screwdriver and a trowel.

This little tool is built for repeated outdoor use. A welded 1/4-inch square steel tang is anchored into a wood handle for a solid feel in hand. It’s compact at 10-1/2 inches and weighs only 0.4 lb, but it's strong enough for small cultivation and prying in loose-to-medium soils.

Product Tips

• For weeding, keep the blade almost flat and skim shallow.
• In cracks, turn the tool on its side and pull toward you to sever weeds below the crown.
• Use short strokes around desirable plants so you don’t disturb shallow roots.
• Let cut weeds dry on the surface when conditions are dry, or collect them if they’re seedy.
• Wipe soil off after use and store dry to keep the handle and steel in good shape.

How to use the Handy Weeder Tool?

Hold the handle low and place the blade flat against the soil, then slide it just under the surface to cut weeds at soil level. For edging or crack work, rotate the tool onto its side with the point down and scrape or pull along the line to loosen soil and lift weeds. Repeat in overlapping passes until the area is clean.

What warranty comes with it?
