Sankaku Hand Hoe - Muriels Favorite Tool!
Muriels favorite tool is a little bit more foreboding looking but its equally versatile. This Japanese Hand Hoe is made of high carbon steel and both sides of the 6” hoes head are incredibly sharp! In fact, whenever we un-sheath a new one for use in our garden company someone ends up getting cut, so be careful with this choice! The V shape of this weeder is key for its use, as it makes a great digging point for holes, and when dragged it makes a very clean trough. The blade can be resharpened when needed but honestly we prefer them a little bit worn out.
Turn the hoe on its long end and scrape it along the surface of your bed to use the blade to cut weeds off at their base, a very convenient way to quickly kill young weeds. This tool can also be used to pull loosened soil out of the way for planting and then, with its flat head, push the soil back into the hole for easy planting.
Blade: 6” x 2 1/2 wide, overall length 17”
