Most of the garden mail order catalogs carry them, but they are NOT for
women. They're crude, fat-handled and clumsy. But a late friend, my husband
and a guy who helps me with the computer absolutely love them. They have
thick blades, one side serrated so it will saw through small roots, etc.
Jim, my computer guru, wore the black finish off the day I gave it to him.
It's not for women to use, and I'm not being sexist here, but most men just
have larger hands. It's a great present for a male gardener. Wish they'd
make something similar with a handle to fit women's hands...Margaret L
