A hand held tool for gardens, landscapes and the like; comprising a handle, and a tool head. The tool head is formed from a flat blade that has tapers and is bent in substantially a “J” shape that is beveled along a portion of its edges. The open end of the “J” has a beveled tip, preferably containing a center notch. The bent, closed portion of the “J” shape is beveled at least 50% and forms a heel. The short leg of the “J” forms a flange, which is preferably not beveled and provides an area for attaching the tool head to the handle, preferably via a tang. The blade width is generally four or more times wider than the thickness of the blade material.
