This means that a 4" wide blade needs to weigh 2 pounds, and a 6" wide head needs to weigh 3 pounds. Designed as weeding tool, scuffle hoe, action hoe, hula hoe, dutch hoe for flower and garden beds, sand and farmyard. The long handle of a garden hoe also makes it more comfortable to use than other handheld de-weeding tools because you can work standing up straight, rather than bent over. The blade is attached to a long handle, and the user pushes and pulls it through the soil to cut the weeds just below the surface.

The sharp carbon-steel blade is narrow enough for small gaps between plants and has a clean cutting action. It is simple to use, just by pushing and pulling the hoe the weeds are up-rooted even deep rooted weeds. then scrape and churn through the soil at a shallow angle (20 degrees) as you pull the hoe backward. Tougher clumps of ground could get caught on the open hoe but it felt good quality and is guaranteed for 15 years. Burgon and Ball’s stainless steal blade is very sharp and slices through light weeds easily, although it can catch on tougher patches.But when you start to group them by what the hoe is USED FOR, and what the ACTION is to make it work, then there are just 5 different categories of garden hoes.
