Just shows that one man's meat is another's poison. I love my Wolf
tools - they have really made a difference to my gardening since I got
new sharp blades on the hoes etc, and since I have to walk 200m from
th car park to my allotment, it makes a major difference to the amount
I can carry if I only have to lug about one pole with the tools in a
carrier bag. I haven't noticed any wobble either; if anything, I have
difficulty getting them OUT to change over heads.
