The Fokina flat cutter is one of the most misunderstood tools in gardening. Most users wield it like a hoe—bent over, thumbs down, chopping deep into the soil—and then wonder why they're exhausted and overrun with weeds. This article reveals the single most important secret to using it correctly: hold it like a scythe, not a hoe.

Cleaner beds, dramatically less effort, and—paradoxically—less future weeding. A simple grip change turns a back-breaking chore into a glide, proving that the tool's greatest enemy is not the soil, but the gardener's habit.
