NisakuNJP2520 Long Sidewalk and Garden Weeder-and-Sweeper, Authentic Tomita (Est. 1960) Japanese Stainless Steel, Blade Width-7.25", Polished 51" Wood Handle, Brown/Silver

I was skeptical this would work. We have lived here 15 years and had some weeds I have trouble with in the long driveway (cement) and have to weed them every year. A tedious job. I got this and it works. Not only did I get the weeds but the blade cleaned the earth out of the grooves of the cement so they should not come back. It also edged. I showed my husband how it worked and he used it. We cleared hours of work in under 30 minutes. I LOVE it. I am buying a second one. This one is well made it has 5 bolts on the blade to attach it to the solid wooden handle. Grooves on the blade make it more solid and it more than does the job. It is worth the price. Solid is the word.

Sorry, I took so long to complete this as this is the first time I have had to unpack the container and to use it. I just LOVED this weeding tool! At first, I was afraid to use it for fear it would break, but it has gone beyond my greatest expectations in weeding my yard. I'm so glad I ordered the extra blades as well. I used to hate to weed because I had to go down on my hands and knees to cut away the roots from the plant, not anymore! I don't have the best knees, so sitting on a stool and pushing the Nisaku under the weeds to separate the roots from the plant, leaving me to pick up the expelled plant was awesome. My next investment will be the Nisaku with the short handle. Again, thank you for sending me this wonderful tool.

So. I bought this to get the weeds from between my paver walkway. As the picture it advertises shows.OK here we go. For scraping on a flat surface it's good. Strong and sharp. for uneven surfaces it gets caught on any crack.For the pavers it's very difficult to use and doesn't do the job at allI'm not silly enough to think every tool is that versatile so I'll use it for what it does best since it's very effective for that.

I purchased this item with the intent of removing weeds from cracks in my asphalt driveway. It is the bomb! It worked just as it was seen on the video. I was able to clear an entire parking lot in less than 30 minutes. I wanted to find other places just to use the tool. I agree with another reviewer that you will need another tool to get into the crevices to dig out weeds but for the purposes seen and advertised it is exactly the tool to use.

This thing works on cutting the weeds between paver stones. It has saved me countless hours of doing it the hard way. If someone wants to really dig into the grooves, they will have to use a different tool.

I didn’t find this tool so great! Make no mistake about it it still takes a lot of time and effort to remove grass between paving bricks or elsewhere. If you have any kind of back problems I would avoid this tool completely. It is also expensive for what you are buying. It is a old type ridge chopping kitchen tool on a stick. In my opinion it is just as east to use a screw driver bending down. Sorry folks I do not recommend this tool.

It is sharp. It looked sharp so I ran my finger along it and got a "paper cut".... Once you figure out the angle to use it at and develop a bit of a rhythm (took me a few minutes) this makes quick work of certain garden projects. It worked great on flat/hard/compact ground that you hate to weed. Soft dirt would be ok, but you wouldn't want to drive too deep. 10 sq feet about 20 minutes including raking up. Normally that would be 90 minutes with a shovel. I also used it to get moss off bricks, but it wasn't great with weeds that come up between bricks if they weren't completely level. I like using it to clear slats in deck, Overall it is a good tool to have at your disposal and a real time saver in many instances.

Some people complained that this has a handle that is too short. I am 5'4" and for me it is perfect. It is very effective at sloughing off bunches of weeds in the driveway.I tried it around the pool cage where the pavers are not so level and it really did not work there. But I am satisfied with and will continue to use this.
