Default Re: A more better digging bar - much more

Yes, the point is sharp. You are trying to do two functions with one tool: 1) cut the pup away from the parent corm and 2) pry the pup out of the soil. The sharp edge is for cutting, and the blade and general "beefiness" of the shaft are for prying.
