The day it came in I went out to try it. There's a small tree stump that's been plaguing my house as we kept cutting it down and even salting the earth and it kept coming back. So I figured this would make the perfect test.

And it was! It sliced and sawed through roots of all sizes, dug out the dirt, and made digging up that stump easier than if I had used a saw trowel and shovel instead of just this blade and a shovel. Could not have done this without this blade!

Included are some pictures of the blade after use, where I did need a slightly damp rag to wipe off the clay that was sticking to it, but otherwise it's holding strong! Great quality blade and leather. It feels sturdy.

I saw someone complain that the handle was too big, but I have child sized hands and it fit fine. I saw another saw that the handle dug into their hands, but I work with gloves so I never noticed that. I do know it wasn't seamlessly smooth when I ran my bare hands over it.

I also included some pictures of the stump and the blade for size and reference. The blade is well maintained too! Nice and sharp.

All in all it's great for gardening and yardwork! (I haven't tried the sharpening stone yet obviously as it's day one of having it, but just looking at the stone seems like it's good?)

I purchased the Black Iron Hori Hori with a gift card I received from friends at Christmas. I tend to use gift cards to buy things that I am uncertain about, or if I feel it is more of a "toy" or "extra" item, not an essential tool or the like. With that mentality I placed my order.
I received the hori hori promptly 3 days later. I had read a few reviews so I was expecting a fairly sturdy product. I was not disappointed. The blade is thick and is solid all the way down the handle, giving a great feeling the way that only a sturdy tool can. The wood of the handle is not perfectly flush with the metal on the sides, but that's ok, because this tool is made for work and you will probably be wearing gloves anyway. The blade is sharp enough without being a hazard to handle, and the leather sheath is thick and feels like it should last for a long while.
I decided to test the hori hori out in the garden and was amazed by the versatility and strength of the tool. I used it to weed, remove unwanted tree saplings, clear brush, divide plants, transplant seedlings, open bags, remove old trellis twine, break down boxes, pry up stones, and kill a particularly large spider that attacked me while I was clearing the weeds from the edge of a raised bed. It handled all these tasks no problem whatsoever, and because of the steel finish I was able to rinse it off with water and, after a quick wipe with a paper towel, it looked shiny and new again.
I own lots of knives and gardening tools, but the Black iron Hori Hori has become my go-to tool for working around the yard. I highly recommend this for anyone who gardens, or does any work outside really. I plan on purchasing them as gifts for the people I know who garden.
Basically, if you are thinking about buying one of these, just do it! You will not regret it.

My son and I have 3 of these in service now. We take care our things but we don’t baby them. These have been used a lot.

This is my first hori-hori. If you are a gardener and you don’t have one, you are missing out on a fantastic tool. So versatile!

This model is well made. I like it a lot. I’m just a home gardener so I can’t speak to how well it would work commercially but I I suspect this will be with me a long time. I’m glad because I use it all the time. I even got one for the tool kit on my riding mower — it is a tremendous help when I jump off to pull weeds around trees while I’m out mowing.

If I had a magic wand, the only thing I’d change is to add a finger guard between the handle and blade. I’m very careful but the handle does get slippery if you happen to dig in mud or wet grass (like I was the other day while removing grass and leveling a spot in the yard for a birdbath). I’m very careful but both edges are extremely sharp so a finger guard would be added peace of mind.

Overall, I’m very happy with this hori-hori. If something changes about that I’ll be back to update this review. I suspect this will be in good shape for a long time though.

Awesome tool! Very impressed with the quality in all respects, especially for the price.
Knife itself is very sturdy with full tang. Haven't used it a ton, so not sure about the steel's properties, but it's thick enough to withstand a lot of abuse.
Handle is wooden and simple. Blocky but comfortable to grip. Rivets hold the scales in place, and then sanded off flush with the wood - it's not super pretty, but as a utilitarian garden tool, it doesn't have to be. Out of the box, the wood felt like it had been given a light oil finish, which is a nice touch, but I added a few extra coats of boiled linseed oil for good measure.
The sheath is surprisingly good - much higher quality than I expected. It's made of real leather, not synthetic. It's no hand-crafted masterpiece, but again, it doesn't have to be, and is very functional.

I bought this as a gift for my mother who is always out in the garden. She is so incredibly happy with the quality and functionality of this knife! It came packaged nicely, with a small sharpening block and a leather storage case. The knife as a whole is heavy and clearly a great quality. The wooden handle is smooth yet durable and made to last and blade itself is thick and sharp. She especially loves the measuring tool that is edged into the blade. When I ordered it I did not pay much attention to the actual size of the knife. I was expecting it to be much smaller and am pleasantly surprised as it is quite large! For the price you CANNOT go wrong! A great addition to any gardeners tool collection.

I gave one to my neighbour, who is an avid gardener. I saw how easily she got rid of her stubborn weeds with the knife, then she split overgrown perennials and planted them - all with the knife! I ordered another one for myself and have been very happy with its versatile design. Very sturdy, really comfortable to grip and quite sharp. No more lugging around five or more garden tools to get the flowerbed cleaned up.
I recommend keeping a rag close by, for wiping it, before you slide it back into its sheath.

Very sturdy blade and handle. As others have stated the wood on the handle is slightly smaller than the tang. If for some reason the tool was to spin in the hand while gripping tightly it might scrape some skin, but under normal use this should not be a problem. I like the leather sheath as it fits the tool well and is easy to insert and remove as long as you put it in with the concave part of the blade towards your leg. Also, this comes sharp and can be made to extremely sharp which I did not expect on a tool for digging in the ground.
