The ’Hori-hori’ – a combination of knife and trowel – is an ubiquitous feature of Japanese horticulture: its special shape, sharp yet slightly rounded, makes it easy to plant, dig up or re-plant potted or garden plants, while its extra width means it can also be used for light digging, loosening or breaking-up operations. Its serrated cutting edge is ideal for tidying up herbaceous borders or cutting back roots. Blade of stainless steel, handle of treated beech wood. Comes with press-button leather case and belt loop. Overall length 30 cm, length of blade 17 cm. Weight 195 g.
