What up hoe?
What up hoe?
Anyone have any idea as to the maker of this old hoe? I know on axes a mark like the zero/0 could be related to the hardware stores it was distributed to. However I am not sure about the zero/0 mark on this ho.

That’s a neat one. Around here we call that style an eye hoe or a smith hoe. The ones I have were all blacksmith made as you can see the forge welds on them and there are no markings.
I have no idea as to who made yours, but it is a neat one for sure. Put a handle in it and put it to work, they’re gooder’uns.

Re: What up hoe?
My Father always called it a grub hoe.
He said he used it when he was young for chopping weeds for their cotton and tobacco.
I still have it hanging up in the shop.
You've got a nice hoe there!

Re: What up hoe?
Nice find. That one was made of heavy gauge steel and will outlast several of the cheapie new ones they sell nowadays. I love finding those old hoes, shovels etc at trade day and farm sales.

Re: What up hoe?
I have a hoe I am going to clean up that has gotten a bit rusty. I found it years ago on an abandon farm when I was hiking in the interior of Brazil in the middle of nowhere. I brought it home as a pretty unique souvenir. I will post some pictures to follow....

I found this old Ho' a few years ago on an abandon farm when I was hiking in the interior of Brazil in the middle of nowhere. I brought it home as a pretty unique souvenir. I cleaned it up and here it is... I can't find any markings on it.

Thought you were talking about one of my old girl friends.

Oops! 
Well, 
I have learned that these old Ho's don't cost me as much money in the long run...
