A good strong quality item designed for specific job. Well balanced & ease of use. Takes a little practice but effective long grass, weed & bramble remover. Stick with spear n Jackson you won’t go wrong

Made short work of my garden after a few months of neglect, reducing it all to length that I could even out with my manual mower. Makes for a very easy tidy up too as it all comes out as long bits rather than lots of tiny ones scattered everywhere.

It doesn’t come sharpened – you’ll need to do this and keep it that way for optimum use, but if you do then this is a wonderful tool. If you dislike the idea of having to sharpen something then this is not the tool for you (seemingly the reason for others rating it poorly).

This is a replacement for an old little scythe which disintegrated. It is as well made aa the predecessor and should be as good at destroying thistles and nettles etc. Thank you for having a good basic tool tht does the job – who wants anelctrid job that wouldn’t last for five minutes, I expect it to last twenty years plus!
