At Lakewold Gardens where my physical store is located, I noticed that the gardeners were using these odd looking hooked tools. Gardeners Katie, Faye and Ken used them for crevices and edging, hooking and weeding. The tool became their favorite. As you can imagine, the tools get some pretty heavy use in a public garden. This pavement weeder is about 15" long and the business end is stainless steel so not only is it durable, it won't rust. It's made by the same company that makes the small hand rake. It's great at grabbing onto grass roots and pulling them out.
