Fast, effortless harvesting for the
small-scale grower. No more kneeling,
no more knives or scissors. One person
can easily cut over 175 lb. per hour.
Powered by a cordless drill, the
harvester's 15" serrated blade makes a
smooth, clean cut. A rolling macramé
brush pulls individual leaves into the
blades and then throws them to the back
of the basket. This unique design allows
the Quick Cut to harvest sparse stands of
salad ingredients as effortlessly as it
harvests full stands. The neat, clean
surface it leaves behind is perfect for
those planning on a second harvest from
the same bed. The harvester is just as
effective when the crop is more mature or
"leggy." Universal mount will accept
almost any cordless drill; 18 or 20V drills
work best (not included). Weighs 6.5 lb.
without a drill. Add another 3-5 lb.,
depending upon your drill. Made in USA.
