Seymour 42808 Italian Grape Hoe, 7" Blade, Price/Each

(My husband is writing this review.) This hoe head is the BOSS. We have a no-till garden and this is just what I needed to remove the sod without digging too deep. We are planting two 20x20 plots and I used a standard garden hoe to remove the sod on the first plot. I had lots of blisters, not to mention a sore back. I didn't want to repeat that effort on the next plot, so I bought this grape hoe. What a difference! The second plot required less than half the time to clear the sod.Several people have lamented that finding a handle is very difficult. I went to Menards and purchased a 36 railroad pick handle for $12 (on clearance). I wanted a shorter handle than normal, so this was perfect. I cut about 3 off the fat end (which is actually the handle end) and then slid the hoe head on and used a mini sledge to tap the hoe head firmly onto the handle.I didn't need to screw the hoe head in place because as I swing the hoe, the head is naturally driven onto the fat end of the handle.I use this hoe by straddling it and swinging so that the hoe goes between my legs. This is not perhaps the way most people want to use this hoe, but it's perfect for me to remove sod. A longer handle would not have worked as well.
