Easily the most versatile and often used tool for any gardener, besides maybe a pair of pruners, the Hori Hori is a Japanese garden tool that makes work in the garden so much easier. You could think of it as a much tougher version of a trowel, but with a serrated blade that makes digging up weeds, and cutting through more fibrous and woody weeds, so easy. As useful for planting small-scale ground covers as it is for weeding the veggie garden or hard to reach cracks that grasses pop up in.
