Gifts: NEJIRI GAMA (TORSION SICKLE)

In English, this Japanese gardening tool usually called either an 'offset hoe' or 'scraper.' With its angled face and razor sharp edge, this has become an essential tool to use against weed-ridden gardens. Instead of violently digging into the soil, the Nejiri Gama Hoe is designed to quickly and lightly skim the surface of the soil in order to eliminate shallow rooted weeds while leaving the soil unharmed.

Now is the time of gifts and giving and this is only one of the many gift items we have been receiving at Blackbird. Keep your eye on the blog for more gift ideas to come.
