The Lesche right-side serrated digging tool has saw teeth on the right edge when you hold the handle, designed to cut through roots and fibrous material. The left edge is sharpened smooth for slicing plugs in grass and compacted soil. This dual-edge design lets you switch between root cutting and clean plug extraction without carrying two separate tools. Detectorists working wooded sites or overgrown parks use the serrated edge to clear root mats, then flip to the smooth edge for final plug removal. The right-side serration is the standard configuration for right-handed diggers who position the tool with the serrated edge facing away from their body during the cutting stroke.
