If you’re heading to the garden with just one tool, this garden knife is the one to take. Its stainless steel blade has a serrated edge for opening bags of mulch or soil, a sharpened straight edge for slicing through sod, a notch for cutting twine and a "dandelion popper" on the tip.

Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This is a great gardening tool I have a 1/2 acre lot and have lots of garden beds. This is great to open bags of mulch, dig out weeds and even dig holes for small plants. Very sturdy. A great addition to my gardening tools!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Been busy getting a large garden in with many flower beds. This tool is in my hand most of the day. Just wish I had a way of hooking it on my belt. It was a good buy for the money.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I USE MY TROWEL FOR GARDENING. MY SOIL IS FILLED WITH ROCKS,STONES,AND ROOTS, SO IT IS NOT EASY DIGGING. THE TROWEL MAKES MY DIGGING EASIER THAN MOST TROWELS AND WITH THE ROOT SAW IT MEANS I DO NOT HAVE TO GO GET ANOTHER TOOL. THE WEED DIGGER AT THE END OF THE TROWEL WORKS GREAT.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Wish I had found this earlier. Every year has been a struggle keeping ground cover from taking over my garden. With this tool I can safely transplant from one area to another and with far greater ease.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
After a couple of days with this tool, I took a bunch of others out of my cart. This tool does so many things that I'm not constantly having to switch tools. It's sturdy and comfortable. One of the best garden tool investments I've made.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
So far I love this tool as it is mult-purpose as a digger, weeder and cutting tool. Love the fact it can open garden bags.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I absolutely love this tool. The serrated edge makes it easy to cut through sod, the tip makes it easy to uproot weeds, the markings for plantings bulbs is great and the insertion of the cutting edge for opening bags or even cutting small roots is fabulous. I would recommend this tool to any avid gardener.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
It has so many uses, I only need one tool to do several things out in the yard. A big help.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
To cut plants and shrubs that broke
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
A really sturdy tool and so easy to use.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
My garden has decomposed granite in the soil and this tool digs around weeds and into summer hard packed soil in a way no other tool does.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Exactly what I expected and wanted for many uses.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I have a part-time gardener job in which I do a LOT of weeding. This tool is perfect! However, I also use it at home when digging holes to plant my new finds.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I bought it as a gift.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This is by far one of my favorite gardening tools. When I find myself down on the ground planting or weeding, I don't want to have to keep changing tools. With this... you have a trowel, knife, weeder, etc. I've even sawed small branches with it and it didn't dull. Very handy for planting bulbs, transplanting flowers and slicing roots, and weeding.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This tool servers as a spade, bag opener, string cutter, and dandelion root digger, to name a few uses. Solid construction. I liked it so much that I got one for each of my family members, and they love it also.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This tool is the one I constantly carry while working in my garden. I use it to dig, transplant, plant bulbs, and pretty much every garden use. I like that it has a serrated blade for dividing plants. I like that it has the little blade notch- I can cut down plants without my scissors. I have purchased 5 of these, at least. I give them as gifts. The only way it could be improved would be to make the handle bright orange or red. I have lost a few!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Make good gifts and now I can keep mine.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I love this tool. I use it for everything; planting, dividing, planting bulbs, weeding. I love the hook that cuts string or tough plant stems, and the cutting edge is perfect for sawing thru plants when you divide. I just wish that it beeped or flashed when I accidentally dump it in the trash with weeds. The only way they could improve it would be to add a belt clip.

Nothing really to add…Your preselected comments cover all the bases!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I used my orange "gardener's knife" the whole time. It was my favorite tool. I lost it this summer (despite its bright color) and tried but failed to find an exact replacement, so I bought your Multi-Purpose Garden Knife, and am disappointed for the reasons given above. It's not what the old garden knife was, an extension of my hand and arm. It's too big and instead of feeling easy it feels annoyingly difficult. The near end of the knife, the bit that should feel good in the hand, doesn't because it isn't rounded enough. The photo above shows that it is going to hurt the hand that wields it.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I love this new knife and have lots of fun gardening with it; however, it hurts my hand! Wish the handle were made of a softer material, like hard rubber. The handle causes me fatigue and requires several days of rest to heal the pain. I've been using my heated hand mitts a lot, and seeing the chiropractor. Be careful not to overdo it until you get used to how hard the handle is! The handle on my trowel is soft, so that's what I'm used to! I love that it cuts through weed roots and tough clay soil so I can plant in areas I thought I couldn't plant in.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
weeding, cutting roots/limbs, digging, marking, bulb planting, sm. plant transplanting, cutting bags open, and much more.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Haven't used it much. Just got it. will know more in a year.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Makes weeding allot quicker ! Only one thing I have small hands handle is a bit large. But over all an excellent tool.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This is definitely multi-purpose. It has replaced several of my old tools. I failed to take it with me yesterday to do some volunteer work, and my job was much more difficult.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I'm having a lot of fun with my new multi-tool knife. It digs weeds out of the yard, plants seedlings, and cuts twine. I wish the handle were sized for smaller hands, though.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Makes it much easier when pulling the weeds out of my ice plant. It doesn't bend and it very solid and sturdy.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
i used it to weed but its not shape pointed and I thought it was dull and thick
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
GReat weeder. Very sharp edge for cutting. I use for Dandelions in the lawn and all types of weeds in the Vegie Garden.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Great tool, I never use my hand shovel anymore, I weed and dig with this product only.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
When I first got this tool I didn't use it that much, but now that I've had it awhile, it's becoming my must-have do everything tool. It's great for cutting through tough roots when planting, scraping aside landscape mulch when I want to clear a spot to dig, opening bags and lifting weeds. It also double as a trowel, although is a little narrower than my favorite trowel. The only thing it does not do well is uprooting dandelions.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
It is so easy to use. I have used it for every gardening job since I purchased it. First tool I grab when going out to garden.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Great tool for most all needs while gardening. It measures, opens bags, digs out a weed, digs a hole, cuts through a root for dividing plants, cuts twine and more. Easy to spot bright blue handle so it won't get left out. The one garden tool you will grab first.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
A multi purpose tool that seems to serve any task while out in the garden whether it is cutting through a weed mat, cutting roots, digging or weeding. I will always keep the garden knife with me while out in the yard because of its versatility; you never know what you might come across. Saves time making multiple trips into the garage for the specific tool for a one time task.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I like that this tool is slender. It is easy to get close to plants to capture a wayward and stubborn hitch hiker *or* weed. And it really does open bags like slicing through butter. Being lightweight means it can stay on my belt. My husband wants to use it often enough that he is going to have to buy his own!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Very useful when planting or transplanting. This cuts through sod like butter.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Love this tool! It cuts into my clayish soil easily and breaks up chunks when I do surface digging. Although I keep it outside, it has proved durable.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Since I grow my vegetables organically in a no-till garden, I use this tool for almost everything-- dig, plant and weed. The serrated edge breaks up clod of earth, makes perfect-sized holes for planting my seedlings.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I purchased this item because my sister (who is a master gardener) has something just like it. I love it to cut through things and to dig out weeds. I like the cutting knife and the ease of use and light weight.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This tool now hangs on a peg just inside my garden gate, it's the first tool I pick up as I enter and the last tool I put up as I leave. I use it everyday for transplanting, opening bags, cutting twine, etc. etc. etc. I think this is one of the best garden purchases that I've ever made.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This tool digs up dandelions and other weeds. I use it to open bags of potting soil and mulch, and even cut twine! I have used it a lot on weeds in my garden. It works GREAT!!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This tool really is great! It cuts thru plant roots easily, and the point of it even cuts under old roots. I love it!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This tool has come in handy many times already, even in the early stages of getting the vegetable garden planted. I now have one tool, instead of 5. Great product.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Gave it to my husband for his birthday. He uses it instead of 2 or 3 other tools. Really handy!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
The garden knife seems a little heavy when you first pick it up but I did not notice the weight after I started working with it. It was much nicer to dig to plant my bulbs than a plastic type one that I have had. It is sharp which made the digging very nice and confined to where I wanted to dig. I am not a big gardnerer and mainly plant bulbs here and there and dig a weed or two and it is very nice for all that. I also like the measurements on it for some seeds that I planted too.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This is one of the best hand tools I've ever used. It is a multi service tool so you don't need to drag around a lot of other tools. Great for digging out weeds.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Great for removing long/deep rooted weeds. Also can be used to cut thin branches, twine etc. It has been one of the four tools I will take with me every time.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I keep this on my garden belt instead of a trowel, although it doesn't completely replace my trowel-- It doesn't scoop as well as my trowel. It's great for cutting out root-bound plants and opening bags of potting soil.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
The day after I received my garden knife, I immediately put it to good use in the beds around my church. With only my pruners in my holster, my new knife in my back pocket, and a rake I was able to spruce up the church grounds with ease. This garden knife is a "must have" for all serious gardeners.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Dandelion digger, small root cutter, soil turner - all in one with easy grip, even for small hands.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This was the perfect gift to one who loves to plant a "salad" no matter the soil where he's living at the time - from California to South Carolina - it cuts through roots, displays depth and is great for opening bags of soil and fertilizer.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
bought as a gift.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This is terrific for cutting through roots and hardened soil whether digging weeds, planting bulbs or removing dead plants from last year's planter boxes.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Use it for opening bags of mulch and bird seed, digging out weeds, etc. It is a great multi-purpose tool.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
A great product for someone who has to garden on the "tractor" because of knee problems.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I am starting numerous flower gardens around the back patio and along the side of the house
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This tool is always with me when I'm gardening. It's great for digging in the dirt, removing weeds, opening bags of soil, etc. Cleans off easily.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I used it to enlarge bulb planters holes so be able to include additional compost/fertilizer to the hole with the bulb.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I just love this spade/knife. I primarily use it for planting outside of worked beds. It cuts roots and the forked point works up the ground really well. The blade opens bags easily. I can dig a good size hole of well worked soil (and mix in potting soil, compost, or whatever easily) with much less time and effort than using a traditional spade. The measurement scale on the blade is extremely helpful as well, especially for those of us who are challenged by "how deep is?" I liked it so much, I bought a couple as gits for friends.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
So far, the knife is great. I've used it to dig up weeds in my yard; to extract dead plant material from a large pot; to break up ice on the sidewalk; and to measure the depth of snow....I was in Oklahoma over Christmas.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I gave this to my husband for his birthday, and he was really excited about it. It does everything! I told him he will need to keep it in a back pocket to keep it handy. It truly is the all purpose gardener's friend!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Very flexible tool
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Bought to use planting bulbs. Look forward to use in planting in the spring as well.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I purchased these for my daughters. This is a first time purchase for this product. I looks great. After use I would be able to rate the product better.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I bought this tool for my favorite gardener, and now I would like to order one for myself. It is a fabulous garden tool that does so many different things.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I bought this for a gift and haven't used it myself. It looks great, but with the sharp cutting edges, it would be nice to have a case/holster for it. I use a Japanese horihori, which is similar, and it is my all-time favorite tool. I wear it on a belt holster at all times when gardening. This tool would benefit from having a holster option.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This tool appears to be of very sturdy materials. I bought it as a gift for someone, and after actually holding it in my hand (but obviously not using it!), it's definitely a gift I would be thankful to receive. It really does cut down the number of tools you have to carry around!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I loved my first multi-purpose garden knife so much, I had to buy a second one. I also bought one for a professional landscaper/friend as a thank-you gift and she was duly impressed with the design and weight and can't wait for gardening season to use it. If there is a 'con' to it, it needs a protective sleeve to cover it when not in use. My husband made a cardboard sleeve to avoid mishaps when reaching in my toolbox.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This is a fantastic all around garden tool. ALso, good at opening bags of mulch. I like it so much I am buying one for a Christmas present.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I love this tool. It is the handiest thing, so I carry it with me whenever I go out to do any type of gardening. I works great for digging holes for tulip bulbs and for cutting through "out of bounds" tree roots when planting, or popping out weeds, etc. I'll never be without one again!!!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
perect for small bulbs
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This is an overall good gardening tool. It is great for opening bags of soil or mulch, cutting roots for repotting and digging. I liked mine so well I bought one for my friend who is a master gardener. I highly recomend it.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
helps to get thru roots and packed dirt
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Great to dig out tough roots and weeds. Digs the perfect size holes when you need to transplant something small. It's great to help chop tough soil and break up tough areas.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
this is so much better than breaking off weeds by hand, the cutting edge is perfect if you don't want to carry scissors.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
The only way to make this tool better, would be to have it touch-sensitive and have it say, "put on your garden gloves*, Patty" when picked up. I'm serious, it is great for digging out weeds, general digging, opening bird seed bags, etc.
* the gloves came from Gardeners as well
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This one knife is great for weeding, planting, measuring depths, cutting open plastic bags, working compost into the soil. You'll want to keep this one in your back pocket all the time you are in the garden.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
It's great for getting rid of weeds, also dealing with roots, etc. under the surface.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
An extremely versatile tool which does the work of 4 tools in one. Works great dislodging those weeds with mile deep root systems and makes planting flowers and vegetable plants a breeze.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I really love the way this tool works..it is so multi-functional. I have not seen this on any other review, so maybe it is just me, but I am on my third one. My first two broke. The metal part broke sideways into the plastic. I am not used to hand tools that I have to be specially careful with, but I have to say that I am with this last one that I have, I want to use it, not break it.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Saves time in toils & pleasure of gardening, especially w/weeds and dandelions.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I saw this trowel/knife on a gardening show and it is great for dividing perennials, even iris and day lillies.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Meets expectations. Good for weeding.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This one small tool does it all. It's sturdy, yet compact enough to keep with you as you roam around the yard, so you'll always have it ready for all those unanticipated chores that would have otherwise sent you trudging back to the garage for a tool.
I've seen similar items selling for less on other sites, but they get horrible reviews. You won't regret spending the money on this one. It should last a lifetime.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This tool can spade garden dirt for planting, cut stray roots, slash open the potting soil abd mulch bags, all in one sitting and it never leaves my hand. I even use it as a mulch rake and it's become my go-to transplanting tool.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
We have clay soil with rock fragments in our garden so any of the tools we use have to be tough. This is one tough tool. I use it mainly for weeding but it's handy for opening potting soil bags and cutting twine, etc
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
The best feature of this tool is that it is so multi-faceted. Instead of a number of tools to take to the garden, this one does it all.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Just the most handy tool to have with you in the garden.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Help! I recently purchased this tool for my husband and now I can't get him out of the garden. He is out there cutting, digging and slicing to his heart's content!! A great tool!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I use the knife to cut my asparagus and dig up the weeds in garden. IT is great to have one tool instead of carring several to do different jobs in garden.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I love this tool! Since I've gotten it, I've thrown out my old trowel. I used this to plant a new large perrenial flower bed and to add some things to another flower/shrub bed. It cuts right through the landscape fabric and sod and the edges do work great to cut open sacks, etc. I was so impressed with mine that I bought two more for gifts.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This really is a multi-purpose knife. It is the best small tool I have. The large comfortable grip allows me to work longer without my wrist and hand getting tired. I highly recommend this tool. I have told several gardner friends about it.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This is a great tool, durable and useful. It is being sold for an outrageous price through Gardeners. I found it almost $10 less at a major chain store. I will not buy from Gardeners again without a lot of price comparision shopping, and I am a very good customer at Gardeners. After realizing how high the prices are, I looked for and bought several high priced items elsewhere as well, that were all priced WAY below gardeners prices. Perhaps consider more reasonable prices!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Convenient saw blade to hack through roots as I dig. comfortable grip.

This is a useful, durable tool.I am not pleased about being gouged on the price by Gardener's Supply[...]I'll no longer buy from Gardener's Supply without a lot of checking around. Bad business!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This is a great weed puller, since you can get down deep and around the weed. It is extremely durable. The sharp edges allows you to use this for opening bags. You can also use it to dig holes for smaller bulbs. I always carry it in my back pocket when out in the garden for that stray weed.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This knife does it all! digs holes, removes stubborn weeds, open bags.... I love it!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Used it for weeding and planting.

Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Beats the old dandelion tool any day. Great to have a knife, trowel and weeder in 1 tool.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Great tool for weeding, opening bags of mulch and cutting twine;will come in handy for planting fall bulbs. At last my kitchen knives can stay in the kitchen!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
My husband joked that you must have read his mind about the perfect gardening knife when creating this thing.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This is a super handy tool. The tip works great to pop out weeds, and I love the serrated edge to cut open bags of potting soil and mulch. I lost the first one that I bought and I really missed it. I ended up buying two more, one for me and one for a friend.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This tool will eliminate carrying at least four tools with me as I garden. I can use it to plant bulbs and annuals, remove dandelions, open bags of mulch and peat moss, cut cord, etc. Can't wait to get started.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Durablity is the main word I have to say about the Multi-Purpose Garden Knife. It is a must have for any gardener.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I love this tool and need to buy somemore for gifts. Everyone that see it ask to take it home, so I will be buy more of them.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This is one of the most used tools in my garden. It's a favorite for weeding, transplanting, and bulb planting. It's well made with a comfortable handle but the best part is the tip. It's easier to get into small spaces too big for my spade or fork. Worth the price.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Product can be used for a variety of functions but it is difficult to push into the soil due to the split end.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
After my husband started breaking tools with somewhat heavy-duty weeding, I gave him this tool. It's got some heft, and feels very solid. It dug out tough weeds with ease, I have used it to do some planting, and to open potting mix bags. It is expensive here, but I don't regret my purchase.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I use this special tool to dig up the weeds in my yard,till the dirt in my deep beds, and plant bulbs. This is the best tool I ever had.
I even bought tow more. One for my sister, and one for my daughter.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This is the first tool I reach for in my gardening bag. It is great for cutting tightly-wound roots from the bottom of root-bound plants and loosening the roots up. Great for digging up tap-rooted weeds (think "dandelion) and tree seedlings. Perfect for smacking slugs. It's uses are so many and varied, it will save you time not having to dig in the tool bag everytime you need a tool. Don't garden without it!

Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Just as multi-purpose as described. I keep finding more good uses for it, and it's the only way to hack through overgrown fern roots, short of a pick-ax.
What to use as a sheath is a problem, however, because both edges are sharp.
[1 of 1 customers found this review helpful]
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Everyone MUST have one of these. It's practically a TOY. You want to take it out and just LOOK FOR things to do with it, because there's nothing it can't do. I love it for digging into hard soil and shaking up the ground and making a hole for a transplant. It works better than a large shovel!!! It's just great!

Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This tool is perfect for getting those deep dandelion roots and because it has measurements on the blade, it is good for planting bulbs too! The handy slicing notch is good for opening bags of mulch and the serrated edge makes short work of twine and tough roots. I like this so much I gave them as gifts to my gardening friends!

Digging weeds. removomg grass around posts so I could stain them, planting flowers.

Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
My day job is a wetland consultant and on the weekends I run a native plant nursery. In both roles this tool has instantly replaced the other tools I used to carry. The knife is strong enough to pry up soil samples of dry, hard baked clay during the week, and slice open bales of potting soil on the weekend. I keep it in the leg slit pocket of my overalls - it's like a third hand. The only improvement I would suggest would be to offer an optional scabbard. The serrated edge is tearing up my pants.

Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Had to dig through some tough weed block to plant mums. This cut right through it with no problem and my hands aren't as strong as they use to be. Digs small holes easier that a regular garden trowel too.
[1 of 1 customers found this review helpful]
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
THis product feels good in my hand, and I know that practically nothing is gong to stand in my way when I use it. It is used mainly fow weeding and digging for the setting of new plants. I especially like the sharp serrated edge - very useful when I come across a vine or root in the middle of a project. I find less use for the double point at the end - sometimes that doesn't allow me to stab into the ground to as deep as I would like. Overall I am very satisfied.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
mostly time I use for weeds remove, cut threat and measure for plant flowers/perennial plants. one thing I can't do hard dirt/too dry ground will be hurt my hand. best soft dirt then easy to dig.

Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I use the tool to dig holes for plants, open bags, pop dandelions, mullien and other similar weeds and slice off other weeds that don't pull easily. It is so easy to use. This is the first tool I grab when I go to work in the garden.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This tool helps me open bags so much easier, digs measured holes, acts as a scoop and moves dirt around plants with ease.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Don't really know how you could improve on this tool.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I just love this tool. It is the first one I pull out of my garden shed. I can dig a hole, cut through roots, measure how deep my hole is and do it all with one tool.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Good if you want one tool to have with you, since it does so much. However, individual tools more suited to each task can be more useful if you expect to be at work for a while. This is a good multi purpose tool to have with you as you (casually) walk around your garden. One word of caution is that the bag cutter (I believe that's what its for) is sharp and I did manage to cut myself accidentally with it, but that won't happen again, since I use the tool with a little more respect for that sharp part.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I like how it opens the bags without any problems and it's good at getting the weeds out too
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I gave the garden knife to my husband in his Christmas stocking, but once I used it...he's not getting it back! It's the only tool I carry with me to do garden work. I've dug up roots, opened bags of mulch, planted annuals, moved river rock mulch, and much more. I need to buy another for him!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I cant say enough about this garden knife. It has many uses in the yard as well as in the out-back. There is only one caveat and that is you have to be careful when using the garden knife or you can cut yourself by numerous means( getting hooked by the cutting notch, saw, knife edge). This is not an item for the con: list, just a warning. And this is not a con, just a wish, but I do wish they made a holster for this animal. You find yourself carrying it around like a New Age Machete, with no place to keep it. But I would not hesitate to venture into the jungle with this beasty.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Multi purpose tool means lugging fewer tools around the garden. Found it great for dividing clumps of perennials. No cons.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
I think the multi-purpose garden knife is a genius idea and it makes gardening fun and worthwhile.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
Great for digging, planting, weeding, and loosening dirt!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
There are NO negatives. I use the tool to cut down maple saplings, dig out boulders, edge the grass, dig in rock-hard clay soil, transplant, cut underground roots...
You name it, I've used the garden knife to accomplish it.

Great for weeding. Great for opening bags.
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
No matter what I'm doing in the yard, this multi-purpose garden knife is always handy. Its ability to perform diverse functions really cuts down on the amount of tools that I carry around while doing yard chores. The same tool that I can use to plant/transplant small plants, can also be used to cut the string that I need to stake another plant nearby. And when I'm done planting and staking, the same tool helps me weed the area. Finally, I can use the same tool again to open a fresh bag of mulch to keep the area tidy. 4 jobs - 1 tool!
Comments about Multi-Purpose Garden Knife:
This is the tool I always take to the garden with me. I use it for everything from planting perennials to bulbs; weeding long rooted weeds or shallow annual weeds, removing small tree roots from planting holes or cultivating compost into a bed.
