Get Some Real Work Done With The Sod Buster

By Jordan Ross

I hate running around and trying to find tools when I’m working on a project, so whenever possible I like a tool that can combine the functionality of two tools into one — like the Sod Buster here.  It combines a small sledge and a cutting edge.  It could help out if you’re doing concrete forms around roots, for instance, where you could be pounding stakes and cutting roots all at the same time.

I’m not quite sure who makes it, but I found this one with a heavy-duty fiberglass handle online for $20.

    The picture looks like the Plumb 11502 wide-bit brick hammer:

    Wow. Seems like a great hammer for the heavy duty jobs out doors - what is the weight of the head? I’d be interested in adding it to my toolbox along side my Stilleto.
