Dutch Sliding Hoe - 1500mm Hardwood Handle - Double-edge, Low-effort Weeder for Rapid Surface Clearing

Australian Artisan Dutch Sliding Hoe- 1500mm Hardwood Handle - Master-Forged, Low-Effort Weeder

Tackling large patches of surface weeds with a traditional draw hoe is inefficient and strains the back. These Artisan Dutch Sliding Hoes are the superior solution. Hand-made in Melbourne using techniques of a bygone era, they feature a polished, double-edge straight blade that is engineered to be pushed just beneath the soil surface, cleanly scraping and severing weeds with minimal effort. The extra-long 1500mm handle ensures you can glide across large beds while standing comfortably upright, transforming garden maintenance from a chore into a quick, effortless task.

Best For The discerning home gardener who appreciates heirloom-quality, Australian-made tools and requires a long-handled, low-effort weeding solution for rapidly clearing annual surface weeds across large vegetable gardens and expansive beds.

Key Features

• Back-Saving 1500mm Reach: The extra-long 5ft Tasmanian Oak/Spotted Gum hardwood handle provides maximum leverage and reach, allowing you to glide the blade across the soil while standing fully upright, eliminating bending and back strain.

• Double-Edge Sliding Action: The straight blade is designed for a low-effort push-and-pull movement just beneath the soil, quickly undercutting weeds and cleanly shearing them from the root without disturbing the deeper soil structure.
