Does anyone have a Burgon and Ball Winged Weeder, or a Wilkinson Sword Swoe?
If so, how would you feel about sharing your views on them?
thanks v much

Hello Lynne
I can't help you with either of these hoes but my real favourite is the Wolf push-pull type. See an example at:
http://www.garden4less.co.uk/proddetail.asp?prod=RFM15
It has a double serrated edge and cuts on the 'push' and the return 'pull'. They are not cheap as they are part of the Wolf multi-fit system and you have buy the pole separately. Mine is one of the very early ones that took any old wooden handle.
I seem to remember that when this came up on forum before it got lots of favourable comments.
