Niwaki's one-handed weeding hoe is the enemy of unwated weeds anywhere. This cleverly designed tool slices through weeds in flower beds or vegetable gardens, making quick work of the task. It's also useful for digging out rows for seeds.
Care: Carbon steel is very hard and retains its sharpness better than stainless steel, however, it is more prone to rusting and must be treated with a little more care. If you are using the hoe for na extended weeding session, we recommend keep a clean, dry cloth handy and giving the blade an occasional wipe, especially if it's getting wet. After using, remove leaf residue, rust and gunk. Dry with a clean cloth and wipe with Camellia oil. Store in a dry place.
You can keep your tools working properly by remembering the following: -Japanese steel is hard and sharep, and can be more brittel than some people are used to - it will chip if abused. -Do not cut wire, metal, stone, plastic, or any other hard material (even bamboo fibres and some very hard woods, especiall knots and burrs, can damage steel edges.
