Have you ever used a knife as a garden tool?
Serrated knives are my favorite.
The word serrated has latin origins meaning "saw shaped"; think of the serrated edges of Maple leaves.
If you are a thrift shopper, at Goodwill, they keep most of the donated knifes in a case at the front of the store. You can just ask to see if they have any serrated knives - they are so handy in the garden for weeding and working with difficult spaces like between pavers or even just wearing out the root systems of weeds through continuous chopping above ground.
