Abstract:
A long handled lawn edging and sod cutting tool, which employs a blade, the length of which protrudes downward from the bottom end of the shaft, and in a straight line from the shaft, and that is sharp on the curved side and tapered to a point and set perpendicular to the narrow bar foot pedals and the handlebars of the tool. The sharp tapered to a point blade enables the user to initially pierce the sod with a small point, then cut as the blade taper widens, and to edge a lawn or cut sod more easily and more quickly than with a conventional or half-moon edger.

Claim (Index 2):
The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the foot pedals protrude as narrow angled bars on both sides near the bottom end of the shaft, and are perpendicular to the blade.
