Thanks Thomas Giandon & Grass Daddy for making video. I just ordered both tools and looking forward to using them..... needed these tools a few weeks ago when I was hired to weed 3 large flower beds.... oh well, better late than never. God Bless.
I really appreciate you taking the time to find the guy that recommended this tool to you and giving him a shoutout. Most youtubers would just say “somebody in the comments said” and that drives me crazy.
I'm 43 years old i remember i used that triangle hoe been try to find one for years sears & robuck used to it that how long it's been now i know where to find it great video thanks best de weeder tool ever
I made one of these 20 years ago out of 3/16 plate. Also made one that is half moon shaped. Thought I was on to something special, because there were none like it. After years of use, and a worsening back, I had to try something different. For my use, the hulu, or "stirrup" hoe actually works better and faster.
Looks really cool, I use a stirrup hoe. The only real problem I see with this hoe, is being so sharp, if you weed right up next to your garden plants, if it is not minutely controlled, you may cut the roots of the plants you intend to leave. So be very careful. Otherwise, it looks like a neat addition to the garden tool shed. They are sold out right now, I just checked.
I have never seen one of these. I'm from East Tennessee and going to have to purchase some garden tools cause mine got stolen. I hope they have fun with them .I'm going next week to look for a regular how but I'm going to find one of theses f I can and can afford it. Thank you for the video. It showed how well it worked.
I own several Prohoes, they are the best. The triangle shaped hoe is called a scuffle hoe and is used mostly for light duty garden weeding. The other hoe that Prohoe sent you is a field or cotton hoe and I use it for clearing bush. This is a heavy duty hoe and I use it for chopping out big weeds or small saplings. In my part of the country, it is particularly effective against tangled ground vines. I don't know why the did not send you one of their more traditional lighter hoes like the 70G60. I use this hoe for "row walking" trailing my swipes to the right-back side. I can cover a lot of distance this way.
Looks good, I have something similar for basic weeds, however I'd use a digging hoe at certain times of the year to take out deep root weeds, otherwise they just come back next year....
yeah the regular hoe is great for larger clumps of grass too, it was also sharp so it cut the roots very easy. the weeding one is more for smaller clumps or if you have weed fabric getting just over top of the fabric.
@Grass Daddy What is the rake you are using at 4:31 in this video. I need a rake like that to sort the weeds out from the gravel at a property I purchased, but the garden and farm stores I've visited so far have not had a rake like that.
My thoughts: received my 60 hoe. Used it in my veggie garden on weeds in rocks and around foundation of house. Seems to work best for me on the back swing it does the job fast. I have raised beds. I have massive flower beds that weeds are dug out and mulched. I would not use it for my beds. It is a well made tool. I ordered the one with the handle.
Does the triangle shaped one get the roots or does it slice the weed off the roots? I will say the triangle one looks sharp enough that you use it to edge your planters.
After using it for around a year, I feel it needs to be sharpened. I do have very hard rocky soil though which probably dulls the blade quicker. I believe you can use a grinder to sharpen the blade.
My mexican grandmother must be turning over in her grave. Scrape/cutting weeds parallel to the ground... might as well use a weed wacker.. the point of a hoe is to slightly dig the weed out by the root (if done by someone with a steady hand and good aim , there should not be any holes dug out).. secondary purpose is to lightly till the soil
Apparently the scuffle I received is defective because after about 200' of row working, I felt like my back was in spasms. I'm 6'2" and in order to keep the cutting surface of the hoe flat against the soil, I had a steep bend in my back. My wife is 5'2" and I thought it would be ideal for her, however, she experienced the same effect. We're both born and breed country folks and have used hoe's our entire lives in the tobacco fields and gardens. This scuffle is incorrectly designed. One handed operation around small vegetables is not a real option because their is not enough control of the razor sharp edge. Mary at Rogue hoe said this video was a good illustration of the correct use. Is their another video?
I like the old-fashioned big pole through type hoes. You can find the heads at flea/antique markets. Put your own hardwood handle on it. I expand them first with heat. Many of the wood handles found on big box tools are junk (banana wood?). You can still find American handle makers. It's interesting to watch different hoes work from around the world.
@grass daddy, I told you it was magical!! 😁
It really is! I am glad you said something, thanks!
No problem, you hooked me up with the groundskeeper II rake so we are even. That thing is phenomenal too.
yeah when you have a well designed tool it makes the whole job enjoyable

These are very high quality hoes so if you can I'd go for one!
Grass Daddy!
Please make more videos!!
I miss you man!

Just ordered the 60s from manufacturer. Thanks
awesome! you gotta reply back when you get it with your thoughts ;-)
Tell me about that rake. Interesting design
Love you and your little boy good job
I prefer the square one, it goes deeper into the soil and gets the roots too. You new one seems to only cut the heads off. But otherwise, good video 👍
Looks good, I have something similar for basic weeds, however I'd use a digging hoe at certain times of the year to take out deep root weeds, otherwise they just come back next year....

Red Bull kicks in at 3:30!! I wish I could work that fast in the yard.
I prefer Monster, the pink fruit punch one =P
Grass daddy, would you be able to use that triangular tool to remove dead patches of grass from the yard?
great video love your tips be safe and have a blessed day !
thanks for watching!
You need to try the skidger it's the best weeder ever cuts through anything gets under and in between everything
@Grass Daddy What is the rake you are using at 4:31 in this video. I need a rake like that to sort the weeds out from the gravel at a property I purchased, but the garden and farm stores I've visited so far have not had a rake like that.
Looks like a Groundskeeper II. They sell them on amazon.
I love seeing your kid playing around
haha thanks
YEP, this video made me have to get one. THANK YOU :D
just be careful, it's wicked sharp lol I almost got my foot a few times!
Rogue makes workout equipment as well, top notch equipment. I wonder if it's the same company.
I can see myself owning one of the triangle types. Could've used it last weekend.
Yeah I helped a friend with 11 yards of mulch and didn't have this then, took forever to weed it lol
Grass Daddy 11 yards of mulch. Ouch!!
My thoughts: received my 60 hoe. Used it in my veggie garden on weeds in rocks and around foundation of house. Seems to work best for me on the back swing it does the job fast. I have raised beds. I have massive flower beds that weeds are dug out and mulched. I would not use it for my beds. It is a well
made tool. I ordered the one with the handle.
awesome! yes it's very well made. I think pushing it in with the sharp tip and then cutting back works well
What size head did you get? I see they have a 2.5, 4, and 6”. I can’t decide which I want for weeding my raised beds.
How’s you make that swale?
Hmmm I may have to look into getting one of these .
They really are nice!
You know that’s not killing the roots only wasting time, looks good now but will grow back!!
Maybe but if you go deep enough you'll get most of it
how does it work in gravel?
Does the triangle shaped one get the roots or does it slice the weed off the roots? I will say the triangle one looks sharp enough that you use it to edge your planters.
it cuts the roots but if you keep it deep enough it'll get enough for the full kill.
Looks good and easy to use but aren’t you leaving the main cause of these weeds in the ground just to sprout up again. The roots !
Do you feel like you need to sharpen it after each use and do you feel like you could use a grinder to sharpen it?
It's hardened steel so no I don't think you'd have to sharpen it for a while. But yes you are able to sharpen it with a grinder.
After using it for around a year, I feel it needs to be sharpened. I do have very hard rocky soil though which probably dulls the blade quicker. I believe you can use a grinder to sharpen the blade.
Where did you buy the seed to grow those tennis rackets? That is SUPER impressive!!😂😂😂
hahaha it's an heirloom seed, you have to get it from a tennis farm
WHAT SIZE IS THAT TOOL THE LINK DOESNT WORK AND THERE IS MANY OPTIONS
We got one. AMEN!
would you think the 6 inch would be better or the 4 inch?
I guess it would depend on how big your beds are. for mine the 4in is fine, but if it were a lot bigger then a 6in would speed it up
My mexican grandmother must be turning over in her grave. Scrape/cutting weeds parallel to the ground... might as well use a weed wacker.. the point of a hoe is to slightly dig the weed out by the root (if done by someone with a steady hand and good aim , there should not be any holes dug out).. secondary purpose is to lightly till the soil
Where have you been! Busy I assume.
thanks for that
You got get the angle right on an action Hoe, I’m a landscaper and In almost every case use an action Hoe

That is the only video I've done with it
Those racket weeds are a pain to get rid of. Good luck 👍🏼
I like the old-fashioned big pole through type hoes. You can find the heads at flea/antique markets. Put your own hardwood handle on it. I expand them first with heat. Many of the wood handles found on big box tools are junk (banana wood?). You can still find American handle makers. It's interesting to watch different hoes work from around the world.
That's why I like these, they are American made - good old fashioned quality!
Looks like you could use it as a harpoon if you where under zombie attack.
haha I do keep it by my bed now in case of zombie attack!
Looks like well made tools for about the same amount of cash for the cheaper big box items. I wonder if they try to gouge us with the shipping.
they are fairly large so I do wonder how much it costs in shipping, but then again they are light..
ok so I looked, $14 to ship and $5 for each additional one. so not bad considering
They charge for shipping but the tools are like none other. Totally worth their weight in gold. The quality cannot be fine anywhere.
Use it to scalp weeds in lawn same difference!!
Bro’s before the hoes 😜
lol
Can they send me one I'm on a budget
The camera I not close enough to see it better.
Don't those just cut the roots. Rather than pull them all out. So it's just going to regrow
If you go deep enough you'll get the majority of it
Wow....looks perfect....have to keep away from kids though!
yes that was a concern the whole time doing the video lol
Easier to just spray roundup. All you're doing is disturbing the soil which causes more unwanted weed seed to gather to the surface.
so sprinkle some pre em down.
if that floats your boat sure, but with rose bushes and dahlias all around the beds now I'm not gonna spray anything
Omg!
I did it with Woodglut.
I clicked on this because I thought it was going to be about Sarah Palin.
awkward.. why are people still talking about her? lol
A better joke would've been Stormy Daniels.
cause she wrote the book: books.google.com/books/about/Going_Rogue.html?id=Wx00mzMRGH8C&printsec=frontcover&source=kp_read_button#v=onepage&q&f=false
haha you have a good brain, I never remember details like that =P
Grass Daddy Nah. You just were fortunate enough to forget about Palin's gift to American Literature like most of us did 😂😂😂
But...are they loyal?
Be careful with the baby around. Thanks
Ya these guys are sharl
But they are just cutting the weeds, they will grow back.
