At Radius Garden we are pretty finicky about trowels. After all, the company was founded on a design for an ergonomic trowel, the natural radius grip trowel. As I was bending over my raised bed one day last spring struggling to transplant some deeply rooted herbs, I had the thought, "I really wish I had a trowel that was as easy to use as the root slayer shovel." within a week the design was completed. We developed a new flared handle for extra comfort, adapted the root slayer shovel design as a trowel, and added a twine cutter notch that doubles as a bottle opener. I can tell you from experience that the trowel works like a dream, not only for gardening, but also for opening craft I pa's. You'll never find a sturdier trowel to rip through roots and difficult soil.
