Not the flimsy stuff from the big box stores, the kind landscape professionals use.

Got mine from lowes
You have to cut it with an electric orhack saw
They are straight, stiff, ridgid pieces

They look jus like the ones at a mcdonalds landscape bed

Cut out the middle man and go to Brecheen Steel in Plaquemine. I’ve done this for several projects and the price is typically less than half of what you find at the irrigation places.

I mean I don't know how heavy duty you are talking about but this Colmet edging from Lowe's is pretty stout.

This is plenty thick for any application, but be careful weed eating, the power finish will come off easily.

Woerner Turf also carries it. Heavier gauge than the big box stores

Stuff from Lowe’s is pretty nice. But I cut off the spot where they put those stakes on the end. They look like shite.

I use the colmet 12 gauge material with the longer stakes. It comes in 10’ sections from BWI. Lowes sells the 14 gauge stock that is 8’

Yeah, I have it too.

It has to have some bendability to make curves and things but as I mentioned, it's stout.
