The forged hoe is sharply ground, allowing the hoe to easily cut through all types of weeds. The soil is also loosened by hoeing, which improves the soil structure. All hoes from De Wit are forged from pure hardened steel. The hoe has a self-sharpening tapered blade, allowing for long periods of use. The hoe handle is coated with wax, which prevents blisters on your hands. The hoe handle is rigid because of its 32 mm thickness and hoes wonderfully thanks to the professional through-mount T-grip.
