I agree a krafse is not cheap, but...
. kept well maintained it can last 10 years or more,
. is less likely to be lost than a trowel,
. is better for your knees, back and hands than conventional hoes,
. gives you plenty of kudos amongst the cogniscenti of UK diggers
. and is much more impressive to members of the opposite sex than a collection of 'mini trowels'....
With peace and consolation hath dismist, And calm of mind all passion spent...
