This is a really tough one. It’s a cross between a hori knife and DeWit’s slender rock and root trowel. Made of chunky 5mm thick steel, the blade is slotted right into the solid ash knife handle. There’s no tang (or neck) which makes it super sturdy as well as versatile.

You can hold it like a trowel for levering, digging, etc, or like a dagger to strike it into soil. The blade is gently concave and has a rounded tip, so it’s excellent for things like transplanting or potting on deep-rooted seedlings. You won’t need to worry about keeping it in a holster either.
