A neighbor introduced me to one of those tools -- it's called a hori
knife -- and I hardly use any of my other tools any more. Nothing, but
nothing, gets stuff out of the ground the way it does. Yes, I have to
stoop to use it, but it does such a good job that the weed is far less
likely to come back because a bit of root has been left behind.

It also does all the other things mentioned in the link.

This one is a lot cheaper than the "hori" knife earlier posted.
Wonder if it's a different mfgr or?

If you notice, the knife on the original site comes with a sheath and
costs $25. The one Persephone found is $16.99 but it has no sheath. If
you scroll down, there's a sheath for sale for 7:99. Same difference.
The sheath has a belt loop.
