You would think a hoe is a hoe but I scavenged an old hoe blade from a barn and welded it to a piece of pipe and this hoe outperforms every other hoe we own. Arguements have even arisen over who uses this hoe. In an effort to make the other hoes equal, I have sharpened them, modified them and done everything under the sun to try and make them equal. But I can't. Any ideas on how to improve them? Or what's the deal here? Is it like a knife - determined by the metal or is it balance and shape of shank? I bought a chinese import this weekend and tried to modify it. It truly stinks.
