Forged Hoe, Forged Adze Grubbing Hoe, Solid Mattock Pick Digging Tool, 17-Inch Mini Grub Hoe 1LB

This small garden hoe is one of the most used tools in my garden. I garden in raised beds. grow bags, and some small in ground rows and it is the perfect size for that. It is a pretty simple design but , in my 70 years, I have found that sometime the most simple things work the best. My wife liked it so much that I bought her one too. The only criticism that I have is that the small nail that holds the head on should be replaced with a screw to better secure it !

This is not an heirloom-quality tool by any means, but I am very satisfied with this purchase. It is now my go-to tool for weeding a dense flower bed area at my home. Seems solid and does a very nice job chopping the soil and whacking out the weeds. The head is quite narrow though, so some may like a wider head to cover more area. But I needed the narrow head for my purpose, so it works great.Update: knocking off one star. As other reviewers have noted, the head is not screwed on - and it can fly off. Well, it did. Thankfully, nothing valuable -- like my head or my car -- was in the way when the head came flying off. There is an empty screw hole in the head that I will probably use to secure it better, but for now I put the bottom of the handle on the driveway and hammered down the head with a sledge hammer. Seems tight for now.

No one else on the planet likes this small hoe, but I found it to be a perfect tool for delicate garden work, getting in close to living plants. No, it's not for breaking rocks, or deep digging. I didn't want to like it, I read all the reviews - and still bought it.I did glue the handle on, it slips off if you don't.I also drove a screw into the head at the handle to keep the head on, there is already a hole there to use.What I found was the angle of the cutting head is perfect, compared to other hoes I have purchased.

The weight would be ok if the handle was a bit thinner. It can be a bit rough on this wrist because it does not sit well in the hand, as the handle is really bulky. I bought it to help clean excavator tracks so it is not so great for that but does come in handy in our garden, it is just wearing on the wrist.

I have been working on removing a large stump from my yard. This tool has been invaluable in digging around the stump. It cuts nicely through the smaller roots and helps break up the harder clay soil as well. It has been sturdy and extremely useful!As other reviewers have mentioned, though, you do need to put your own screw in the hole in the head that is supposed to hold it on the shaft. It is easy to do, though, and once you do that, it stays intact very well.

I love this thing. It made my work of pulling up sod & weeds so much easier! Definitely recommended!

Too tiny & light. Good for kids gardening . Looks steady though.

Fairly nice tool kinda sharp and easy to use Would suggest take nail out of of handle head and replace with a screw instead was to loose for my liking
