Fiskars Garden Hand Trowel and Transplanter for Digging and Planting, 11.5" Fiber Composite Lightweight Gardening Hand Tool with Hanging Hole

This is a fantastically built tool. i seen this in the store when i was in town and wanted to order it a few days later so i did.Its built like a tank but im...not sure why i bought it after having it i dont really use it any more then a standard trowel.The pick in the handles nice for certain niche situations and seedlings...but when it gets dirty its a bugger to get back in there.The measurements are nice but they kinda get in the way of using this as a seeding tool, small seeds get caught on the deep grooves and it makes me fumble. personal problemIts really narrow and any transplanting you do with it will be best suited for smaller less matured plants, i had to sit there and dig in multiple times before putting in my squash plant.if i could only have one tool id honestly just get a normal trowel but this does have it's uses.i feel like for me this isnt the right product but for someone out there needing a finesse tool its brilliant and well built.

At least with Fiskars you're not just paying for a name, you're paying for quality tools, kinda like Knipex pliers, They have everything, and usually more than I need, Its a neat little package for seeing and planting small plants. Good for succulents, and sprouting seeds, and planting bulbs, and they are not a prybar. Quality molding. The end.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:How is this so cheap? This is a fantastic trowel! I've been planting potatoes and tomatoes in containers this year and this is especially great for repotting the tomatoes. Perfect size, great weight and feel, high quality tool. I love this thing! Zero issues, can't think of a thing I'd improve.

Love the weight and strength of the spade but detest the sticky label that’s virtually impossible to get off.

When this hand trowel arrived my first impression was that it was a cheap plastic waste of money, but was I wrong! The trowel is very light weight but performs just as robustly as the metal one I have and cleans us more easily. It actually is easier to dig with and just such a surprise. Not just curious to see how many seasons this thing can last, but given that it is a Fiskars, probably a long time.

Well, this thing is fantastic! I used my friends a few weeks prior to ordering this one when I helped her ship some soil from one bed to another and expand another area of her garden and I did not realize what I was missing in my nice Cutco brand garden tools until I tried her giant fishers scoop and saw just how much extra I could get in there all at once. If you’re not picking the Garden, this might sound silly to you, but if you do Garden a lot and are like me, then you know that there are times when you just absolutely need to scoop more dirt or compost or wood chips all at once and it is not appropriate for space reasons, or whatever other reason to be using a full size shovel. In the past, I was using the largest of the Cuco garden tools and that was serving his purpose for me just fine, or at least just fine until I used this one and learned how much faster I could be with a slightly larger scoop. Anyway, I’m sold! Perhaps a downfall for Fisher might be that I will likely never have to buy another one as this is very sturdy and unless I just decide to have multiples or give more as Gifts, I probably won’t need to be replacing this one. That is great for me and makes me extra happy to buy their products and I am a huge fan of this.

Good price for a decent product. Could be sturdier but still worth it.

Every couple of years I end up rebuying garden tools because I “save money” by grabbing the cheap stuff. Spoiler: it doesn’t save anything.This Fiskars set is the first time I felt like a functional adult in the container garden. Solid build, comfy gloves, sharp shears, and everything I need without hunting around the garage for a rusty maybe-trowel.If I’d just been sensible before now, I could’ve saved myself the blisters and the shame.
