This year the weeds have really taken over so I needed something like this to help me out. I remembered back to my childhood in the 80's that my mom bought this fancy interchangeable garden tool so I jumped online to see if the company was still in business. Well it appears it isn't (even though my mom still uses those tools today and is in her 70's) so I purchase this brand. It works pretty well but it's a little less well made but it has proven to be very tough considering what I've put it through so far.
