This dual-purpose hand tool combines a standard flat hoe blade with two or three metal tines opposite it. Growers flip the head to chop weeds and shape soil with the flat edge, then use the prongs to break up clods, aerate the soil, or drag out roots. It eliminates the need to carry two separate tools for light weeding and cultivating tasks.

Grab the double hoe and break up that crusty soil between the tomato rows.
Insider tip
Keep the flat blade sharp with a mill file so it slices through weed roots rather than just battering them.
