Lee Valley 鑽石鬆土鋤

The diamond head slices through crabgrass roots way easier than my old hand trowel, and pulling it toward me means I barely have to bend. Did my whole front border in about twenty minutes.

Weeding my packed raised beds used to take an entire afternoon until I switched to this hoe. The diamond-shaped head lets me push and pull through the soil from either direction, so I'm not constantly turning the tool around.

The diamond head cuts through weeds in both push and pull strokes, which saves me a lot of wrist work in the beds. Only gripe is the handle could use a bit more grip when my hands are sweaty.
