The tool you NEED. As an experienced organic gardener, I am usually unimpressed by new tools. However, a few years back a friend gifted me the handheld Cobrahead tools, and they worked like MAGIC. They till the soil with great precision because the the blade is larger than the shank – so it rips the weed roots right up. Often, you don’t even need to use your hands, just twist the head around a little in the soil, and you can toss the weed out of the garden. It saved me HOURS of time doing it the usual way, and because I was able to get so close to the roots of the vegetable plants without damaging them, said roots were more able to penetrate the soil. Which of course, means bigger, healthier, better yielding plants. Fast forward to a few days ago, when the long version arrived. It was super easy to put together, even for those completely unable to use tools regularly. You just pop the head into the base, then use the allen wrench (The L shaped, hexagonal black thingy) to tighten it down. SUPER easy, really. The handle is why there’s so much extra cost. It’s almost like a 48″ baseball bat – it feels a lot like the old fashioned tools – the ones your Granny has and that you’re so jealous of because they’re great quality. That heft allows you to really wail into weeds your rototiller can’t get to. Moreover, for those of us with bad backs (I MEAN back back. I’ve had 7 spinal surgeries), the Cobrahead big version does the heavy work largely for you. This is great for those of us who love gardening, but can’t take all the bending over due to mobility issues. I HIGHLY recommend spending a little extra for this product, both because of quality, AND because of efficacy!
Update! Great customer service. Originally I said that It looks like it would be a great tool. The handle is nice and sturdy; the metal hook is nice and sturdy. But it came without the allen wrench, so I used one that I had that fit. No matter how tight I can get the set screw, as soon as I start using the tool, the cobra head falls off. So, it is essentially useless to me. UPDATE: I called the company, and they sent out the proper allen wrench and another set screw, and I had no problem getting the screw tight enough to hold the blade. I’ve used it a little to test, and I can tell it’s going to quickly become one of my favorites. Kudos for a good tool and excellent customer service from its maker.
Hand tool. I have a large perennial garden that needs regular weeding. My back was taking a beating, whether I bent over or sat on a stool and used a little digging tool. Sometimes I use a shovel and then go back and pull the uprooted weeds. A friend told me about this tool and I find it allows me to weed standing up. I am learning to twist it just so to pull up the weed and place it in the bucket without having to bend over. It is a bit of a learning curve. Pricey but worth it if you want to save your back some stress.
One of the most used garden tools I own. I bought this in 2018 (I was just describing this to a workmate so decided to finally write a review) and have to say, I can’t do without it. Besides all of the uses one can imagine for weeding and garden tending, where it does a better job than any hoe I have ever used (I have three others and my prev favorite was 1950’s two pronger) this thing does an amazing job ripping new ground. In CT I will use this use this to repair dog spots, rip poorly growing ground to replace with shade seed, rip areas where I plant new perennials and just recently used it to rip a line for an underground sprinkler line; it pulls up medium sized rocks with ease, rips thru decent sized roots, and penetrates deep enough that one pass does is often sufficient to avoid needing a bigger pitch fork. I mix topsoil with grass seed and apply over the ripped ground and have had great success. Occasionally I do pull out the metal prong from over exertion, always on too big a root, but it easily reattaches with an allen wrench (everyone should own a set of these anyways). Truely an indispencable garden tool.
Ease of weed removal. This tool is absolutely fantastic for cutting off or digging out deep-rooted weeds.A friend loaned us a long handled one to try out. It had been professionally sharpened, and it was like a razor going through the weeds. The new, unsharpened one works almost as well. We have clay soil, so I have a shed full of tools for removing weeds, but nothing compares to this one.Those knee pads I just bought to replace the worn out ones? Probably not going to get much use now that cutting and cleaning up can be done standing instead of kneeling.This tool is so effective that we bought both the long and short handled products.

Amazing. If I could give this a bazillion stars, I would. But one.
Takes away back breaking digging. Nice quality product. Perfect weeder without back stressing digging. It trenches, digs underneath an unwanted plant with ease and lifts it away with minimal effort. The curved end is heavy duty and will stand the test of time. The long handle is high quality.
Sturdy. My husband really likes to edge curved beds. Good for weeding small areas between plants too. Sturdy and well made.Old school effective tool.
Works. Works great on lots of weeds, though not all weeds. Nice knowing It’s here when I need it!
