Q: Does this cultivator cut weeds or pull them out?
It's designed to uproot weeds rather than slice them, using an unsharpened hook-shaped blade that pulls the weed out by the root.
PD237 - Lee Valley Blade Cultivator
Made of hardened stainless steel, the 1/16" thick blade of this cultivator is designed to uproot weeds rather than slice them.
The unsharpened hook-shaped blade slides into tight spaces between plants and also fits between paving stones to lift out grass, weeds and moss.
The sturdy tang is curved to give the hook a better angle of attack when weeding in a standing position, and to give you a clear view of what you’re doing.
With a 60" kiln-dried ash handle, it is 65 3/8" long overall. Blade is 2 3/4" wide.
