Sunset Metals 13304774 Lightweight Amish Made Furrowing Hoe Steel Blade 54"

This hoe is one of the best row-makers and precision weeders we've found. Its razor-sharp, arrowhead-shaped blade makes defined furrows for planting and enables you to weed around small, tender seedlings and plants without damaging them (and without having to get on your hands and knees). Blade is set at a 70 degree angle to cut parallel to the ground as you stand upright. A vital tool in the early stages of your garden, and very useful all season long. Lightweight yet strong. 54"L hickory handle. 5-3/8"W. High-carbon, Swedish steel blade. Made for us by an Amish saw-maker who shares our passion for gardening. Approx. 2 lb.. USA made . Galen Lehman, Proprietor, says, "My longtime Amish acquaintance, Melvin, makes these hoes. I took the first prototype we got from him home with me to test. I'm still using it! Melvin's secret is that he uses those giant circular buzz saw blades from lumber mills to make his hoe blades. If it cuts hardwood without getting dull, you know it will slice through the dirt. And, I love the little point for spring-weeding around tiny plants!" For a Simpler Life! Galen Lehman
