Garden Works Tiger Trowel
Best heavy-duty trowel for gardeners tackling tough roots and rocky soil.
This is the ultimate workhorse for gardeners who treat their tools like extensions of their hands. Its serrated, split-tip design makes short work of stubborn roots and rocky soil, though the heavy-duty construction means it feels significantly more substantial than the flimsy, lightweight trowels found in big-box stores.
