When it comes to garden hoes, there are two things to note: the purpose of the tool and the action which makes them work.Weeding hoes are the most common, and they have a sharp angled blade that slices along the upper layer of soil to cut or uproot weeds. We tested a range of dutch hoe brands, using them in different gardens and situations to help you find the right one for your garden.

For chopping and digging into the soil, the hoe's head should be heavy (a half pound per inch of width is best). Unlike many of the far eastern produced handles this one is from carefully selected slow grown Ash and has a nicely rounded end for added comfort.This impressively robust tool is the mainstay of some agricultural workers and market gardeners, just as the garden spade is to the DIY gardener.

Its narrow blade head makes it easy to get to all those weeds located in tricky spots and between plants. A well-balanced hoe that's heavy-duty and easy-to-use yet sharp enough to cut through tree roots and thick turf. The hardened aluminium shaft on this Dutch hoe is well balanced, but the grip is not in the right place for all users, meaning the handle can dig in while working.

Rakes are sometimes referred to as a lawn rakes, as they can be used to collect leaves and garden debris together without causing damage to the lawn or soil.
