Barebones Hori Hori Ultimate - Garden Knife with Double-Edged Tempered Steel Blade, Walnut Handle, Ambidextrous Use, Japanese Knife Garden Tool for Weeding and Gardening (Tool Only)

I bought this tool in 2020 and it continues to be a favorite in my garden. I added a colorful ribbon to the handle to avoid losing it in the garden since the brown wood blends in to wherever I accidentally set it down. The handle is comfortable to use and has held up well these five years. I expect to use it for many more years. It's great for planting bulbs or plugs, digging up plants by their roots for transplanting or removal, and many other uses. It's the first tool I go for when I get into my garden.

Anything this company makes is beautiful. This things like a pissed off machete. It’s so awesome

I really like this, I was hesitant to spend $60 on a garden trowel but after seeing a church members while visiting I decided to give it a go. This this from what I can tell is built very well it came super sharp but will dull when you dig with it , and I believe that is to be expected when shoving it in the dirt. I may also try buying the other one as well. I got just the blade no sheath due to cost and honestly I don’t think I would even use the sheath if I had it. All in all I think this is a good tool.

I’ve wanted a hori hori for use in the garden but have not been able to find one with a comfortable grip for my smaller hands. This tool is perfect. I’ve been using it for a variety of garden chores and it feels balanced and comfortable in my hand. I like the sharp tip and long blade for digging up plants and bulbs and the saw on the side is handy for small cutting needs (it would take quite awhile to saw through a 1/2”). Its sturdy and I don’t worry about breaking or bending it. It’s fast becoming the first tool I reach for.

Well made, excellent materials. It’s a little heavier than some Hori horis, but it fits my small hand better because of the extra shaping of the handle.

First off, mine hasn't snapped, but Ive had to tighten it, and it is a problem I unfortunately have to remain aware of while working with it. Second off, this really could have been finished better. The angles on the grinds are too heavy. I litterally spent 4 hours thinning this thing, and bringing the tip to an actual point, so it actually glides into the soil instead of me having to expert the extra force to get the damn near blunt tip in the ground. .......SO for the upgrade redesign you guys needto make it full tang, and put in some work, and at least put a second angle on the edge.

Solid tool. Works well for a variety of jobs- not just for gardening. Your garden will love you long time.

The handle and design are nice the blade is sharp. However the metal is cheap and porous. It's not full tang and it snaps with the slightest pressure. 2 knives have broken within 1 hour of use. I use Hori Hori knives every day. This one should be used for photo ops only. It's useless for what it's designed for. It's frustrating when you have a tool you depend on and it breaks with ease. This knife does not warrant the price.
