"Got this to help divide Hellebores I was wanting to propagate. And cut right through a tough root ball with no issue!"
"This is my second root cutter great on my palms and the rest of my garden"
"Love this tool I use it to cut back lots of different plants Best for cutting flower stems from hostas"
"Like small blade as can fit into areas my pruning saw cannot, but doesn’t seem very sharp. Only worked on tiny roots."
"Works great"
"Did just an okay job. Not as sturdy or well made as my previous root cutter."
"Bought this 2nd one as a gift. My favorite gardening tool. I like it for getting out below ground runners of Bermuda weeds. My soil is clay and rock. Nothing cuts through it like this tool does. I also use it to cut in compost and good soil."
"Do you have to be careful because it is razor sharp! I couldn’t wait to use it it slices through quarter inch alders in one motion! It is angled just right to give you access to hard to get places."
"High quality design. Ergonomic, sharp, and durable"
"This is the best gardening tool in existence today. We have about 1 1/2 acres of a little bit of woods and the rest gardens that I've put in over the last 25 years. I carry this with me whenever I go around the area and . . . slash, there you go unwanted growth !!! Love, love, love it."
