Can anyone contrast the Belloto grub hoe from easydigging mentioned here by Gene with the Rogue prohoe field hoes? They say that there F40f 4″x6″ head only weighs 1 pound.(Belloto head(4×8) is 2 lb.) and can get it with fiberglass handle, which might last longer, or not. Maybe the angle isn’t as good as the Belloto. Something seems odd here. Anybody used both?

My favorite hoe after thirty years of caring for large to huge estates is one made of spring steel by Fano saw works in Chico, Calif.It’s a long handled large squared flat blade.Very useful for moving dirt as well as scalping ground.

I once saw a hoe that was small appx 2 in. rectangle. Looked similar to a warren hoe or onion hoe but had blades on either side. Didn’t know if it had been home made or store bought. Would like to find one.

I’ve used a particular (peculiar) hoe for many years but the stores have stopped carrying it recently.I’d like a new replacement if it can still be found. It is shaped and looks like a 9-iron golf club. Any help will; be appreciated. Thanks

I bought the 4″ hoe from easy digging after I read this article and it is all they said it was, I think the best purpose for this hoe is starting a garden in tough soil or sod.
