Nisaku NJP6510 Namibagata Hori Weeding & Digging Knife Japanese 7.25 Blade, 6-Inch, Includes Weather Resistant Hard Plastic Sheath, Stainless Steel/Wood Handle

This tool is incredible! I may never use a conventional trowel again, and I am an avid gardener. Give it a try, it is well worth it. Great for pulling weeds and everything you need while working in the beds. Very sturdy, looks like it will last. The case is very sturdy but it is hard to get it out and get the case onto your belt, so I just pull it out and take it everywhere with me and then put it in the case when I am done. Great tool!

Good quality, is a great, versatile multi use garden tool.

I wasn't expecting this knife to be as hefty as it was. Fit and finish is simplistic but highly functional. Like a Camry, lol. The fact that its chrome plated makes it much easier to clean and does add an additional layer of protection from corrosion. I'm also loving the sheath. Reminds me of a Mora Knife sheath. The blade offers a smooth edge and a serrated edge. The smooth side is sharp and the serrated side had an aggressive bite. So be careful handling this tool. Definitely a good quality tool that should last for years to come.

I had a Fiskars version of this but my wife snapped the handle off of it while digging out day lilly roots. This one is much sturdier. It has a full tang and solid wood grips. It cuts roots very well and is an excellent pryer. The included scabbard is a very tight fit and it is a bit of a pain to use but it works very well. I usually don't carry it in the scabbard while using it and just store it in it.

I live in the desert Southwest, where we have heavy, clay based soil. Normally, I have to wait for a rain in order to pull or dig weeds, as attempting to use a shovel only injures my body. This is so sharp it can be pushed directly into the earth, and so strong it can then be angled into the offending, deep tap roots of native weeds, or any other types. I have accomplished a lot of work in short order with this tool. Well worth the money!

I am anxious to use this as soon as spring comes. I hand weed my perennial bed and come across lots of plants that need dividing. This looks like it's sturdy, strong, sharp, and will do the trick. I don't think I would wear it on the belt though; too clumsy. I like that it has its own sheath for protection.

I bought 2 when they were on sale, based on all the positive reviews. I have to agree that this is a great tool, with the sharp edges digging in to get to the root of those annoying weeds, making removal a breeze. The only (slightly) negative thing I have to say is that the plastic sheath is uncomfortable to wear, and falls off if I'm not careful. Since I'm climbing around on a 40 degree hillside slope while trying to weed, it's not ideal to wear it at my waist, but as long as I can carry it around or tie it to my belt loop, it is TOTALLY worth the price, even if I throw away the sheath. I'd buy two more if I could get it on sale again, since my family fights over who gets to use this tool!

This gardening knife feels straight out of Rambo. It’s quite large and sharp. The blade appears to be thick and sturdy.

I'm always reaching for this thing if I'm out in the garden. It seems to work well with whatever I try to use it for. I even used it to cut perfect holes in the lawn for sprinkler heads and it was basically the perfect tool for this.

Fiancée is an avid gardener. We have a big garden with big weeds. Now she has a bigger knife. Weeds beware.
