A bladed tool for use as a sod cutter, for breaking up the soil in gardens and as an edger. An elongate handle is attached to a blade having first, second and third edges which generally define a triangle. The handle is attached to the blade immediately adjacent the first edge so as to extend away from the second edge substantially parallel to the first edge. A plurality of serrations are disposed along the third edge. The serration are preferably separated by groove formed in the face of the blade, extending substantially parallel to the first edge, and grooves terminating at the third edge in respective notches. The serrations are about as wide or wider than the notches and the tips of the serrations are relatively wide in relation to the notches. Each serration has a leading edge and a trailing edge, the trailing edge having a portion substantially parallel to the first edge and a portion near the tip thereof which is beveled on one side of the blade so as to form a cutting edge. The intersection between the first edge and the third edge preferably forms an arcuate cutting edge by beveling one side of the blade.
