These were a gift from an old gentleman who modified them and then sent them to me. They went in the pocket and in the years since then have been used for extracting unwanted debris from thorny plants, pulling a weed sprouting in a tight place, as a dibbling tool for planting a leaf or pup and even being used as tweezers extract a splinter or sticker from me. Oh, yeah, and for collecting pollen
. Along with my pocket knife and nail clippers, they are an ever-present garden tool.
