Can anybody suggest a good gardening gift? Or a company I could have
a
look into?


How far do you live from the recipient? Same town?


No I quite quite some distance.


Eh? Anyway, get your friend one of these. It's the single most useful
garden tool in the universe.

What makes it work is its shape and its thickness. Nothing to do with
sharpness. If I caught someone stealing my lawnmower, I'd let them take
it.
If I caught someone stealing this tool, I'd hack their head off with the
tool and send it home to their mommy in a lawn and leaf bag. It's that
good
a tool.


I've got a black one and a stainless steel. Also a few Japanese garden
hand tools which are from S&H with square handle interface. Everything
is round today isn't it? I think they all can double as a weapon.
Never know when some Samurai may show up ).


Or worse: Deer. I really need to learn to make a perfect head shot with a
thrown hatchet.
