## Description

Stainless Steel Uncapping Serrated Knife with Beech Wood Handle.

Review: Great sod cutter - I'm not a beekeeper, so I've no idea how well this works for its intended function. I bought it because it was the right shape for my intended task: taking up 200 sqft of St Augustine grass for a new flower bed. If you've ever tried to take up old-growth St Augustine with a hoe and shovel, you know what a Herculean feat it can be. This knife looked ideal for undercutting the roots to take it up more simply, and it turned out to function very well indeed for that job. Note, however, that simple does not mean easy. It requires both hands and a significant amount of upper body strength -- on the level of an adult male or an athletic female -- to use the knife for more than a few square feet of cutting. And you're doing it on your knees, so buy some sturdy knee pads. You'll also need to be in pretty good shape cardio-wise, as will take a toll on your endurance. Taking up 200 sqft took me two and half hours with frequent breather breaks. If you're young (I'm 53) you could probably do it in half that time. You'll still need to go back with a hoe to get a few stragglers before you hit it with a tiller, but it's a lot simpler than doing it the old-fashioned way, especially with old-growth St Augustine. Or you could just rent a powered sod cutter. But I'm old, stubborn and tightfisted, so I used a knife. Pro tip: drag a bench file about three strokes across both sides of both edges every few passes. This will keep the tips of the teeth sharp and make cutting much easier for big jobs.
Review: Awesome tool. great knife - well made tool. Very sharp, scalloped serrations. I'm using it for cutting sod underneath. works like a charm. I'm not sure about the steel composition so it remains to be seen how stainless it is but it seems high quality. Nice wood handle. Surprisingly high quality for the price.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are there sheaths for these I have little kids and don’t want to leave it around without something around the blade even if it is in a safe place?**
A: Hi, I didn't recieve one with mine. A easy to make holder could be made out of a scrap 2 by 4  piece of lumber. Get a piece slightly longer than the blade, useing a circular saw make a cut length ways that will cut it into 2 pieces, then cut a slot  that is  slightly deeper than the blade is wide through one of the pieces, then test fit the knife to see if it can be inserted and removed easily while holding both pieces of lumber together. If its ok ,glue the halfs together , now you have a wooden block knife sheath.

**Q: How thin is the blade? A thick blade would do more scraping than slicing.**
A: It is thick but easy to cut off comb.
