Fiskars Xact Heavy Duty Gardening Hand Rake

This tool is a lot bigger than I had expected, but it works well. In this photo, you can see it pictured next to my pruners. I’m an estate gardener for a landscaping company and I like this product because it is sturdy, but it’s dull enough that it is less likely to cut the roots of a weed than my Fiskar’s Hori Hori. I use the Hori Hori when I am working around cultivated plants that send out runners all over the place. In that situation, I want to pull up the runners until they are getting close to the plant and then cut them and the little gut hook thing on the Hori Hori works great for that. The Xact Weeder is what I use for most of my other weeding needs since it tends to get things up by the roots without cutting the roots. By the way, let me just emphasize that this product is dull and it is NOT a cutting tool! Those serrations on the side are just for looks and they’re duller than a butter knife! It works great for its intended purpose though. Last week, I was pulling the horsetails out of the mulch in the atrium area at a school and all of my coworkers had given up pulling them up by the roots and were just pulling the tops of with their hands, but with this product, I could loosen up the soil enough to get at least most of the roots from each one. It will be interesting to see how many come back where I weeded compared to where they weeded. Anyway, I highly recommend this tool. Also, if you want a holster for it, this one works well, even though it is meant for a chef’s knife. https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B087BBHS2L?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 I wear it behind my other tools because it is really long and would probably hit my elbow on it a lot if it was farther forward. I kind of wish it had a shorter handle and came with a good sheath, but it’s a great piece of equipment just the same.

This is exactly what I needed to get into tight areas where a rake is just too big. Size and weight are great, quality seems high, just two minor changes I would make: makes the tines a little bit heavier weight metal as they do flex a bit when using (but it does avoid them getting bent), there is something inside the plastic handle that “clunks” back and forth when using – just a minor annoyance. We happily recommend!

Je débute en jardinage, et selon moi outil totalement indispensable tellement il est efficace ! S’enfonce parfaitement dans le sol, va en profondeur, retrait des racines “épaisses” et plus petites d’une grande facilité. A voir a l’usage dans le temps mais pour l’instant très solide, matériau très résistant, aucune racine n’y resiste ! Je recommande

Does not bend when getting weeds out like other weeders. Sent promptly by Apple after wrong item sent initially.

Great length, great price, well constructed. Woks for my needs

its expensive but works great for garden work

Garantia eterna. Se precisa cavar buracos sem passar raiva no acampamento essa é a pá. Aço inox. Pegada grande. Bem pesada (defesa pessoal). Indestrutível.
Barata em relação as outras pás para camping.
