After having broken 2 separate Hori Horis from mass produced companies, I decided it was time to get something actually forged from someone reputable. This thing has not disappointed! Functions excellently as a trowel and weed remover, and bends before it breaks even in heavy clay soil! I subtracted one star due to the handle wrapping coming apart fairly quickly, but I hope Wick's Forge adds this one to their regular catalogue, I'd love to buy another at some point!
I love this tool!!
Solid tool, versatile, well built and looks awesome. Thanks Wicks!
Beautiful craftsmanship. My husband was impressed and can’t wait to use it gardening this spring. Thank you for your skilled hands and willingness to make things the way they ought to be.
I've used this hori hori for ~3 work hours. It digs as well as a cheap trowel. When I used it to chop a branch that was .25 diameter the cutting edge was damaged. I love the concept of this hori hori, but the craftsmanship fell short on my item.
