CIELCERA Hori Hori Garden Knife with Diamond Sharpening Rod, Protective Sheath and Extra Sharp Blade - in Gift Box

I had heard of the Hori Hori as a 'recommended tool for your garden', but had never seen one in person. After breaking 3 trowels trying to dig out weeds, I decided to try THIS. It arrived and I thought I'd just 'try' it out one evening. It was almost dark, chilly, and started to rain. I was just going to pop 3 weeds in my upper yard, but it worked so well, I continued for half an hour in my lower yard and cleared a whole bucket full of weeds. I was so excited about how well it holds up that I didn't even mind the rain, chill, and dim light. This is a must have if you do your own gardening!

I was very pleased with the sturdiness of this knife. It came in a pretty gift box and comes with a sharpener which you can you with other tools which is a great bonus. Love my new knife and can't wait to use it in my garden.

I didn't know I needed this. Better than a trowel.

Best purchase I have made in a long time. Has replaced ALL of my weeding tools and even my awesome bulb digger. I have been using this on untilled soil, heavily compacted. I would use something else if it's too rocky though, just to protect this tool. But even if you use it around annoying weed vines that tend to root woody, the sharp serrated edge takes care of that. And if you have Bermuda weed grass growing in your beds, this will certainly do the trick. I try to be as organic as possible and since I have recently converted 1/2 acre into gardens, both landscape and edibles, I am constantly weeding by hand. And trying to pull everything out (with roots), I have gone through many different tools and finally I have found one that won't bend and gets through everything I've tried it on. I even use it as my go-to bulb hole digger cuz it goes in the dirt so effortlessly without any of the wrist-turning that leaves my wrist and forearms throbbing after a while. Heck, I even use it for all my transplant veggies and small annuals/perennials instead of a shovel. Pay the price for this one. You'll be glad you did. Throw all the other junk away.

This is a well made Gardening tool. Nice stainless steel blade, full tang, and three brass rivets to attach the hardwood handle. The main reason I bought this tool is because it has a full guard to prevent your hand from slipping as the blade is nice and sharp. The leather sheath is OK. The strap that attaches it to your belt is rather this and the leather is not the best quality but to me the sheath wasn't that important. The presentation box probably started out at the factory OK. It has a nice magnetic opening flap but by the time Amazon and UPS get through with it, it is totally trashed. The knife is too heavy and not secured well in the box and in transit comes through the side of the box. I ordered two of these tools and they both came this way. I will say that Cielcera was proactive and great about this and made it right. The reason for only 4 stars is because I feel the sheath could have been better made.

This garden knife has saved me from many struggles in cutting or digging plants out of my garden. I have bought three of these for gifts to my fellow gardeners. I love it!

I bought this to replace the other one that my sister gave me years ago. The last one had a cheap sheath that I didn't use, but this one actually has a decent well made one. If I would be carrying this on a belt I think I would make my own out of heavy leather. This yard knife is sharp on the serrated edge and taking this in and out of the sheath will probably end up cutting the stitching up eventually. But I will hook it to my garden pail which should be just fine to store after I clean it at the end of the day.It came in a nice box for gift giving, the box will repurpose great for bits and pieces in my potting shed. The Knife itself was put together beautifully, the wood looks nice, the blade is clean and sharp, and the measurements nicely stamped in the blade (no worries about them wearing off). I was pleasantly pleased with this purchase!!

It may be bad feng shui to give a knife or blade as a gift, but I'm sure glad I got this Hori-Hori for myself.It's a serious weapon against weeds. Sturdy handle and hi-Q blade dig right in on attacking weeds---quickly and completely. Plus useful as a planting tool. A well-built item.The scabbard a bit of a loser (too floppy), but the Hori-Hori itself has made my gardening life better. Do not deny yourself. Go weeding!

This hori, hori Garden knife is beautifully finished and should last a long time under medium use. The serrated edge is quite sharp. The opposite side is dull and not sharp. I gave it 4 stars for the reason that as I understood that the opposite side is supposed to be sharp, but the knife that I received is dull. I normally take care of my tools so after I'm done using this garden knife, I first wipe off the dirt and then give it a few squirts of WD40 and it's good as knew. The hori, hori Garden knife leather sheat is heavy duty and nicely done. I used this garden knife to plant all my tomato plants and also to cut off suckers from my Lilac tree with no problem. This stainless steel knife is not meant to chop stones or rocks . For the price of this garden knife it's worth to have around the garden and when camping. Though I wished that this knife came with double edge sharp.

When it arrived I ordered another one right away. Seems sturdier than my old one from lee valley.

Awesome for helping plant small bulbs as well

I really liked the shape built of this Hori Hori garden knife. The serrated edge works quite well but unfortunately, the straight edge is not sharp at all. So if you want a sharp staight edge on this knife you will have to sharpen it yourself!

I bought this Hori Hori as a Mothers' Day present for my mom as she loves to garden and landscape. She absolutely loves this knife! I was very impressed when I first unboxed this product. I was very satisfied with the quality and aesthetics of the knife. It has stayed sharp and hasn't damaged through a whole summer of digging through rocks, roots and weeds.Very satisfied with this product!
