Dutch Hoe

[DoctorStrangelove]

Also, out of interest, how does a Dutch hoe differ from a, um, normal or vanilla hoe?

Never heard of a vanilla hoe, but there's lots of different kinds of hoe:

this is the gardening thread

and a genuine question and problem

I'd like to a buy a dutch hoe, but the ones I've seen in B&Q are always with a handle and too big to take in the hand luggage on a cheap flight

and hence trying to find where I can buy the head only

does that qualify for an infraction

you gotta love the UK these days, total paranoia

What is to stop you buying one in Homebase, and then just sawing off the head?

Actually, I have two hoes, one where a small "blade" sticks pretty much straight out, and a second one with a larger blade at right angles pointing slightly backwards.

They're both quite useful in their own ways, and the first is better for fiddly weeding round closely spaced plants, but on the whole I think the second type is better and more effective for weeding.

Enough of the metallic digging implement / electronic connector / suit in a pack of traditional playing cards etc etc references please. The new infraction system has just been tested on one member. We will not tolerate racist jibes no matter how light hearted.

OBI

from what I can see on the mainland they don't sell dutch hoes

I've looked in the UK and I just want to buy the head and stick it on a stick at my place

but can only find the wolf garten system which sells the head on its own

Some brands have detachable handles where you can stick on a different head.
