 more like a toy December 3, 2008
T. Mehuren (coastal Maine)
This was much smaller than I expected! I guess this is my fault for not paying enough attention to the measurements. It has both a very short handle and blade. Not at all sharp. I couldn't get it to cut much of anything. I should have returned it as I found it useless, guess it will be a wall ornament in my garage.

Great tool! This thing works great without bending over or messing with fuel and get a little exercise. Simple, durable, and made in US!

The yard I have is about 30x40 with cultured plants and wide walking paths running through it. This whip got all the weeds on the paths and it makes no difference how high they are. It's very little effort, lightweight, you don't have to use wide strong swings, and it ended up being a lot of fun to use. It did not do well on clumps of high grass. Them I had to pull by hand. The blade is not razor sharp and I really don't know how it's able to cut weeds, but it does it very well without fear of hitting myself and getting cut. I'd recommend it for anyone with small areas needing weed whacking.Ames True Temper Serrated Grass Whip #1942600
No cord, no gas, no noise July 10, 2008

I love this tool, use it to keep a large city lot from being overrun. Tried weed wackers of all variety, the time to clear the reels, load the cord and then trying to twist the sticky weeds from around the spool was more than half of the job. The Grass Whip works immediately and continually (as long as you do), and provides great exercise, using the same muscles as golf if you are a linkster.
No fossil fuels required from a can or a plug so there is a certain smugness that will go with your sweatiness, if I'm really feeling Gore-Like while resting I'll lean it on my Prius in the driveway, if you look hard you can see the green glow:^>
 Does what it needs to do June 30, 2008

It's nice to be able to whack a few weeds every now and then without having to dig out a long extension cord or deal with a gas starter. I had something very similar for years and have been searching for a replacement ever since that blade bit the dust. Unable to find one locally it finally occurred to me to check Amazon. Delivery was on time and the item arrived in perfect shape. My only "wish" is, now that I've used it, that it had a rubbery handle instead of the wood one. I don't feel like my grip is as good on this one as my old one.
