Leonard Soil Knife

Our Leonard Soil Knife is the one tool you can't do without on the job, or at home! Made in Italy, to our specifications, the Leonard soil knife is a perennial favorite with our customers, and it's easy to see why. This 11-3/4" tool has a multitude of functions; from trowel, to planter, to knife, to twine cutter, the soil knife does it all, well.

Six inch blade is dual edged: a tapered slicing edge, plus a super sharp serrated edge that makes quick work of roots, perennials, grasses, weeds, and soil - even cuts rope! The blade is manufactured from the highest quality Swedish stainless steel and is engineered to withstand over 300 lb of pressure, so you'll have plenty of prying power for those stubborn rocks. 1-3/4" blade features a twine cutting notch to cut plant ties and twine without you have to switch tools. And convenient molded in depth markings on the blade, help to ensure that your plants and bulbs are planted at just the right depth.

Also features a comfortable, one-piece molded grip with wide safety guard and thumb-rest at the hilt. Bright orange color stands out amongst foliage and comes with a hook opening for easy hanging.

Couple the Leonard Soil Knife with its companion sheath, the 4750S, and you've got the handiest tool you'll ever use in the field.

Customer Reviews

3 Stars Very sharp, steel corrodes

K. Lew from FL wrote (September 17, 2011):

I bought this when I thought I had lost my original one, which was a Classic. This one, however, is so sharp that it is not too hard to cut yourself when digging out weeds and sticking your hand in near the knife. Also, mine has gotten corroded. I don't know if that is considered rust and, therefore, not covered under the lifetime warranty, but I don't think stainless steel should rust or corrode. I would highly recommend the classic knife, which thankfully I found and continue to use heavily. It has its original matte finish unblemished, and the serrations will not cut you.

5 Stars Soil Knife

numerous gardens big and small, lots of landscape area from PA wrote (September 14, 2011):

A truly great multi-multi purpose garden tool. We never go out to the garden without these strapped on our hip or ready in the hand. Works so well in our heavy clay and limestone strewn soil. Stab, wiggle, pry for weeding deep. Great for transplanting or even slashing/sawing off big overgrown weeds.

5 Stars soil knife

Leslie Z. Taka Napa Farm from FL wrote (September 14, 2011):

My favorite gardening tool. Uses: transplanting plugs, weeding- can undercut weed roots and pull entire plant out- "saw" out crabgrass. cut leggy vines, selectively cut-out weeds, volunteers, etc. without disturbing orginal plant or mulch. Great for dividing plants or cutting weeds out of pots. Orange handle easier to find. Have given as gifts, and recommend to anyone who gardens. Must have tool.
