The Garden Bandit
This is the Avantgarden Shop's best-selling tool (clever name) so it must do the job, even though it looks odd. Made of a thin stainless steel loop with a thick plastic paddle handle, the tool allows for weeding next to the base of seedlings without damaging the tender young plants. For some reason they make it in a variety of colors. Cost is $11.95.
