  • We might have called the Root Slayer Soil Knife the Root Slayer Hori Hori, but we were afraid people might not know about one of the oldest and most essential garden tool designs of all time. Based on original Japanese designs, but updated with modern materials and style, the Root Slayer Soil Knife can perform the functions of almost any hand tool in the garden. Use it as a substitute for a trowel, transplanter, cultivator, or most importantly, a weeder. This handy digger will cut through root-filled, heavy clay soil with surprising ease. When in the lawn, garden, or potting shed, we never like to be without this versatile garden tool. Strap the holster over your belt so you always have access to this handy tool. Delivered with an enamel powder coating, the Root Slayer Soil Knife features an array of a dozen saw-like cutting teeth on one side, a long sharp blade on the other side, the signature Root Slayer inverted V blade tip, and a combination twine cutter and bottle opener near the ergonomic grip. Feel free to sharpen any or all of the high-carbon steel cutting surfaces for a very long lasting edge. Lifetime guarantee.
  • Blade Length = 7.75", Blade Width 2", Total Length = 13.5", Weight: 10 oz., Material: Tempered Powder coated enamel carbon steel blade, non-latex thermoplastic grip with polypropylene core.

Leo F. ★★★★★

After a heavy day of transplanting shrubs, the serrated edge still cuts through roots like butter, and the ergonomic handle didn't leave my hand sore. This thing is built to last.

Violet ★★★★★

I've had this knife for three weeks now and the blade hasn't dulled a bit after hacking through heavy clay and old shrub roots. The handle's grip makes it feel steady even when my hands are wet from morning dew.

Sophia ★★★★★

The serrated edge chews through roots and compacted clay without me prying at it, and the handle grip keeps my hand steady even when wet. I've reached for it more than my trowel every single day since it arrived.
