An ergonomic Dutch hoe with a long ash wood handle and steel head. Ideal for combating weeds with a sharp, toothed blade that easily plucks and removes weeds even in heavy, rocky soil. The rear of the blade tapers to a point, allowing the balde to pass through the soil in both directions with ease. The long stem allows for all weeding work to be done standing up, avoiding any back or knee strains and has an innovative angled waisted handle for greater comfort when using for longer periods. Designed in collaboration with rose grower John Scarman in 2013 and was nominated for the garden product of the year at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show the same year.
The firm of Sneeboer began manufacturing garden tools in 1913, and were in the 1940s amongst the first to embrace the use of stainless steel. Originally designed to withstand the rigours of daily use by the professional horticulturalists and commercial growers of West-Friesland, with its heavy clay rich soil, and still forged, ground, and assembled entirely by hand, they offer the home or allotment gardener tools of rare and exceptional quality. The head measures 12.5cm in width, with handle length of 145cm for a total length of 165cm.
