Popping Weeds Out With the Radius Garden Weeder

The Radius Garden Weeder is a good ergonomic hand tool. The curved Radius handle allows you to dig with the natural wrist position. This will reduce the strain that can causes a repetitive stress injuries as well as make your garden troweling more comfortable and efficient.

With the narrow tip of the weeder you can insert the blade underneath the roots of the weed. Then with a pivot of the weeder you can pop the weed out of the ground.
