Grandpa's Weeder |
The ultimate green weeder. Guaranteed for a lifetime of use
This tool was actually invented in 1913, and was very popular in the Northwest (where it was well known) until WWII halted production. Now rediscovered after 70 years, it's a blessing to anyone who likes their weeding effortless—with no bending, no hand pulling, and no kneeling—period.
Simply center the two iron gripping prongs over the weed (footpad lever can point in either direction), press into the ground, and then remove your foot, leaning the 39" long hardwood handle in the direction of the footpad lever. Out comes the weed, root and all.
This is a simple, effortless tool to use. It's hard to imagine working without it and it's a great value for a lifetime tool.

| With one look at how it works, I tried it and found it to be great. A friend was visiting and saw how easy it works, and likes it very much. My back thanks you Grandpa's weeder. Yes I would recommend it.

| SUPER DUPER TOOL |
| Reviewed By: |
ARLENE WIELAND (BERMUDA DUNES, CALIFORNIA) |
| The manufacturer put a lot of thought into the design of this weeder. Never have I used a more smoothly finished handle, and its permanent printed directions is a very handy touch. My only suggestion is to rename the tool to GRANDFOLKS WEEDER; I offer myself, a pushing 80 great-grandma with 2 artificial hips as proof of its efficient ease of use. |

| Great weeder |
| Reviewed By: |
JR (Divdie, Co) |
| As long as the plant is big enough this works great. Some large plants (I have a problem with the purple Russian [Oregon?] thistle) which have deep roots and are over 5' tall it can't handle but I don't need to get the mattock for most weeds that turn up. I am often out of town so they get a running start. No need to bend which is great for my artahritus. |
