The long handled version, though, has a sturdy, slim, and well proportioned handle, which makes it a joy to use, especially for a small someone (5’4”), who is 50-something and whose hands are starting to get arthritic. Getting a lot of work without a lot of effort is an important feature for any of the garden tools I choose. I can do more, more easily, with the one long-handled Cobrahead tool than with any other I own. I use it to pull the toughest weeds and the easy “volunteers,” to cultivate around plants, to pull piles of weeds and prunings to the wheelbarrow, to rake, and to reach out and grab weeds hiding beneath bushes. Congratulations on producing such a fine tool. I suggest that you have the Arthritis Foundation test the long-handled version, because it produces such extraordinary results with little wear and tear on the worker’s hands, back, upper body, etc. It’s a tough, superior tool that is easy on the gardener. Thanks for sharing your Cobrahead with me. Elizabeth Petersen, Garden Writer West Linn, OR
I received my long handled CobraHead last Tuesday. Just wanted to say that in my 40 years of gardening that that is absolutely the best garden tool I have ever used. It's a real winner, and I will be ordering my second one soon. Have to go, can't wait to get back in the garden and start weeding! Bob Offerman Marietta, Georgia
I must say, it is rare for a company to be named to the Best-Of list two years in a row. But inventor Noel Valdes of CobraHead has done it! Read the rest of this review... Joe Lamp'l Marietta, Georgia

And I like it. The working end up of it is quite sharp, just like the short-handled version that I got for Christmas, which makes it very nice for cutting out weeds, especially in tight quarters. It also did a good job breaking up the ground, which is one of the key features of a good hoe, though I'll admit if I had a big area to cultivate, I'd choose one of my other hoes with a larger head. But this one did a great job of making a nice long, fairly deep, furrow which will be good for planting beans and corn later this spring... Read the rest of Carol's post here!

I live in Orange County. NC, famous for it's hard, dense orange (go figure) clay. When I moved down here from NJ 24 years ago one of the very first things I did in the garden was to bust a tine off of a brand new spading fork. In dealing with these soil conditions there have been precious few garden tools which excite me anymore. The garden claw was the first. A couple of eye hoes from Easy Digging .com were next. Then came the Cobrahead weeder. I was a skeptic, just bought the short handle one...it cost less. That way if it didn't work...no great loss. I was surprised and very impressed. The precision it affords is astounding, letting you get in much closed to plants than you could otherwise. The small size allows more force to be concentrated on a small area, thus breaking up otherwise stubborn soil. It glides under mulch, cutting weeds without hardly disturbing the mulch at all. It enables you to take out weeds in a lawn or amid ground cover with little or no "collateral damage". Well, now I was in sort of a pickle, ya see, I had this REALY GREAT tool...but I also had bilateral knee replacements. Kneeling is something I just don't do any more...for anything, period. I needed that long handle cobrahead weeder. I put it on my fathers day list, it was the only thing on my fathers day list! It was delivered today, unpacked and assembled immediately and tested right after dinner. I was impressed and pleased . In fact the more I used it the more impressed I became. Now I not only had a great weeder, but one which was long enough to double as a walking staff to steady me as I maneuver through my garden. I can recommend the CobraHead Long Handle weeder without reservation. Strong, replaceable parts, it is truly a must have garden tool. Boyd E. Hudson III Orange County, NC
