What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
The construction is great. Seems to be non scratch. This knife is a beast.
The sheath is also good quality. Makes the job easy and less wear and tear on my body. That alone is worth the price! Just a very pleasant transaction. Bought on amazon.
They are sturdy, and durable. It feels incredibly sturdy and sure in my hands with a comfortable handle and pleasant heft. Just enough weight to make swing efficient and effortless.
Great for planting, weeding and general gardening. Used it to easily lift paving stones. Easy to dig trenches, cut roots if they're in your way. Makes weeding so easy to pry up the whole root.
The most useful stable tool for a gardener. Great for vege gardening and planting. No one will comment on your gardening skills as you're hauling it outside.

The tool is pretty handy to do the gardening work except that the blade is not sharp enough to prune the plant

Need a sharpener to do the job

The blade is 18 thick in the middle
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Initially i was concerned it might not be thick enough because i usually take my trowel and push it into the soil and then press against the handle sideways as leverage which causes a lot of stress on the tool

At no point after using it in tough ground did i feel the blade would bend

Carbon steel is stronger but i wanted stainless steel because i didnt want to worry about it rusting

On the sheath the labeling says that the tool was manufactured in japan by nisaku for snow joe nj
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I think i have seen a similar tool with snow joe printed on the blade but this one does not have the snow joe trademark printed on it
