Google tells me that these are typically made of stainless steel, and are purposely constructed with very thin walls so as to cut cleanly through soil. They might not be the easiest things to work with (depending on the kinds of tools you have available) and might tend to display ringing type resonances due to the thin metal construction.

I'd definitely take a closer look or ask the lady more questions before ordering these.
