I know - it's a Hoe BUT they are not all created equal and this is superior. Here's Why... January 27, 2008

I get sick and tired of buying garden tools that are hard to work with, poorly designed and then fall apart. I needed a new hoe and saw this on Amazon for under $17 including shipping. For that price I can barely purchase a cheap one so thought I would give it a try. Glad I did!
First, the handle is entirely one piece so no worries about collapsing or coming apart like so many of the newer two piece tools.
Second, the handle is nice and long - again, so many of the newer versions are skimping and making them just a few inches shorter so that it hurts your back to do any real work with them.
Third, the handle is all aluminum so not only strong but INCREDIBLY light weight - again, making it less tiring to work with.
Fourth - the handle is ergonomically shaped in the triangular shape to fit your natural grasp so no more sliding or blisters!
Fifth - the blade is already sharpened direct from the factory. One of the main reasons so many garden tools are terribly difficult and back-breaking to work with is poor design and failure to have a sharp edge. This comes ready to use or you can put a bit more edge if you prefer but either way - it is designe dto be sharped just like hoe's of old. If you have never used a sharpened hoe and think all garden labor is excrutiating then you will be pleasantly surprised! Combined with the ergonomic fit, light weight and solid construction - not to mentin price -this is a fantastic value for the money!
My only regret - I only bought one.

So many of my garden tools are in two pieces now. This hoe has a lifetime warranty. It's so lightweight and very sharp. I am very pleased with it and shipping was quick too!

yes, it's a GARDEN HOE, not a back yard one, for that I'll have to buy another one for serious digging, very light, very well built, works well with either glove or bare handed, cuts roots of weeds pretty well, and dug up half inch of soil if you want to, because of the angle of the head part, it's not possible to dig more than that. Did cut a 2 inch root with only one strike and get the job done, excellent shock absorbing shaft.
