Love this one piece dibble. Works best in moist soil - dry soil tended to collapse back into the hole. Perfect for dropping in a seed or bulb.

Looks solidly made. Heavy, but won't rot like wood ones. It is sturdy.

Solid metal tool works comfortably in either hand. Placed a chef knife next to it for size comparison. Works beautifully at making rows or holes for bulbs in my gardens.

The metal feels like something toxic. The surface, including the handle, is irritating to the touch. I have a few pieces made by cs osborne and this can't be from the same company.
