What are your favorite tools? What tools could you just not do without? Do you have a bucketful of useless tools that you never use cluttering up your garage or shed? Come on and tell all!
Are you looking for recommendations for a certain type of tool? Post here and others will share their favorites.
This one I saw! I was trying to think of my favorite garden tool. It really depends on the job. The first thing that came to mind was my hands!
I do like my Fiskars shovel, but it isn't always with me, only if I have to dig a hole. This one: http://www2.fiskars.com/Products/Yard-and-Garden/Digging-Too... The photo doesn't show what I like best about it. It has a nice "step plate" at the top edge of the shovel. I can even use it bare footed!

I have one of those Fiskars weed pullers too. It is great. the first one broke the head right off with a tough weed. They replaced it no questions asked.

Sheri, I meant to say that I was pulling a woody vine out with that weed puller when it broke. That darn vine was tougher than the weed puller. I don't think an herbaeceous weed would have broken it.
Here is my list:
Garden kneeler, couldn't get up or down without it.
Pochers shovel, a shovel with a long narrow blade
5 gal weed bucket
A V-shaped hoe
and a cheep pair of bonsi shears that I use for deadheading and pinching.

Chris, I used to always use a 5 gallon bucket, but then a friend gave me a collapsible cloth basket that I absolutely love and use all of the time now. It's rectangular and lightweight. Since some of my weeds have gotten too tall, they fit better in the basket. Also, I can throw an extra tool or cut bloom into it and retrieve it easily before emptying the basket.

After hearing people suggest Craftsman Hose, for their lifetime guarantee, I sent DH to buy one. The dumb thing has kinked from day one! I do not like my grey with red stripe Sears Craftsman hose.
