Tomita Nisaku Hori Hori Garden Knife No.802

A Hori Hori is a traditional Japanese gardening tool that combines the features of a knife, a trowel, and a saw. It is designed to handle multiple tasks like digging, weeding, and cutting through roots, making it a versatile alternative to carrying several different hand tools.

Yes, the blade features a serrated edge specifically designed to saw through tough roots and thick stems. Because the blade is made from heat-treated 420J2 stainless steel, it is durable enough to handle significant resistance in the soil.

The blade includes printed inch markings that allow you to measure planting depth instantly as you dig. This ensures you place bulbs, seeds, or transplants at the exact depth recommended for optimal growth without needing a separate measuring tool.

The handle is crafted from natural wood and shaped for a secure, ergonomic grip. It also features an integrated finger guard, which provides extra safety and stability when you are applying pressure to dig or pry.

The mirror-polished finish significantly improves the blade's resistance to rust and corrosion, which is essential for a tool that spends its life in damp soil. While it is highly resistant, we still recommend wiping the blade clean and dry after each use to maintain its longevity.

Yes, the knife comes with a dedicated sheath that protects the blade when not in use. It is designed for safe transport and storage, preventing the sharp edge from damaging other gear or causing accidental cuts.
