Finally a durable garden trowel for working the hard clay in my garden. I have bent/broken any number of trowels working the garden. This trowel is up to the task of being a work horse in the garden - sturdy and dependable - and easy to grip.

I've had my share of trowels over the years, and my main complaint was that they were basically all too small. Sometimes you just need a bigger shovel, to either dig wider or deeper, and the 'regular' ones just don't cut it. Enter Fiskars Big Grip. I saw this in Target and grabbed it immediately; I knew it was simply something I had to have, being a hard core gardener. I haven't had a job that this has been too small for yet, always planting and moving plants. It wouldn't be too handy if needing to move or plant something large, when a full size shovel is necessary, but every gardening tool set needs this trowel. Well made & sturdy, definitely one of my best gardening supply purchases...

I wish they had more of these; I hope they start offering others, such as a weeder, mattock, and the like.

I have the cultivator and this trowel (which is actually more of a scoop; it has a very wide, open blade, and is best used for moving large amounts of material, such as digging a transplanting hole for a 1gal or so plant, or for scooping garden soil or planting mix from the bag).

I like it a lot. It's got a good, soft grip, and my hands don't cramp up after using it for a long period of time. They also seem to be very well made, strong tools. The blade is more of a dull metallic color (not shiny) which I like a lot.

Finally, the tag it comes with comes on a nice, nylon, braided cord; I ripped the tag off and kept the cord as it's great for hanging the scoop up when I'm done using it!
