back to topic. I have to say my favorite is my mower. I hate to cut the grass, boring job but this beast does it very fast so I can spend more time in the garden. It is a 48" Snapper walk behind(old).
But in the garden I like my garden fork...never met one I could break. The newest kid on the block is the Lesche Digging tool. I used it for 8 hours (along with the fork), my hands/arms never felt fatigue....can't say the same for my back.
