My wife got me a Neiji garden hoe some years ago.  Just the thing for
transplanting, or frightening the Witnesses.... (they no longer stop here).

 When the witnesses come I am cordial but state up front people of weak
faith try to convert others for confirmation.  Seems to work.  

 Years ago Smith and Hawkens offered hand tools  from Japan that had a
square wood metal interface.  I have three of them 3  feet from me now.  
The Hand fit was oval and a joy to use.  Tools to extend the mind in a
way.  Don't know where to find them new but I treat them like family
heirlooms in case one of my kids get into growing plants.  Fingers
crossed.
