Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a slasher and a bill hook?

A slasher is generally used with a sweeping action to clear brush and vegetation over a wide area. A bill hook is a shorter, more controlled tool for trimming, hedge laying and cutting woody stems.

Should I choose a single or double edge slasher?

Choose a single edge for controlled, precise cutting. A double edge suits fast clearing, as it cuts in both directions.

Which Spear and Jackson tool suits light grass cutting?

The Razorsharp Little Giant Grass Hook and Razorsharp Scythette are better suited to grass and lighter growth than the heavy-duty slashers. Shop Spear and Jackson Scythes & Hooks at Tooled-Up for both light and heavy-duty options.
