Forked Hand Hoe

Japanese 3-pronged hoe for the digging, weeding and planting. Good in the veg garden for preparing seed beds, and great for prising out roots, clumps, rocks and other such unprisables.

Birch handle.

Best usage:

Use in a chopping or raking motion to loosen soil, break up clumps, remove roots and rocks, or prepare seedbeds. Very suitable for working in narrow garden beds where you need to avoid damaging surrounding plants.

Clean after use to prevent rust (a drop or two of Camellia Oil will help with this) and maintain sharpness.
