This is the rare garden tool that actually improves with age, trading mass-produced convenience for hand-forged steel that cuts through compacted earth like butter. It’s undeniably heavier and more deliberate than plastic alternatives, but the trade-off is a lifetime of reliable, effortless soil aeration.
