Lee Valley Diamond Weeder

The diamond tip gets right under the taproot without tearing up the soil around it, which saves me so much cleanup. I've been using it between my pavers where a regular hoe just won't fit.

The diamond tip slides right between my pavers and pops out the weeds without wrecking the moss growing in the cracks. I've used it on dandelions and tiny sprouts in tight beds, and it gets them out roots and all with barely any effort.

Does the job on dandelions in my flower beds, and the diamond tip gets in close without tearing up nearby roots. That said, the handle digs into my palm after about twenty minutes, so I have to wear a glove. Fine for small patches, not a whole afternoon.
