HOE FOR FACILITATING WORKING ON AT LEAST TWO SIDES OF A PLANT SIMULTANEOUSLY

摘要

A hoe for facilitating working on at least two sides of a plant simultaneously which comprises a handle, a shank, a ferrule, and a blade. The blade has a first inner angled edge of a first outcrop, and a second inner angled edge of a second outcrop which form between them a substantially V-shaped opening. A flat inner edge cuts off the inner point of the substantially V-shaped opening. The substantially V-shaped opening is for partially encompassing a plant for uprooting, as well as for forming parallel furrows, the sides of which are formed by the inner angled edges as well as by outer angled edges of the blade.

1. A multi-function hoe for facilitating working on at least two sides of a plant simultaneously which comprises:
a) a handle; b) a shank; and c) a blade; wherein said handle is for holding of said hoe by a user; wherein said shank attaches said blade to said handle; wherein said shank is permanently affixed to said blade; wherein said blade further comprises: a) a first outcrop; b) a second outcrop; and c) a flat inner edge; wherein said first outcrop of said blade comprises: a) a first inner angled edge; and b) a first tip; wherein said second outcrop of said blade comprises: a) a second inner angled edge; and b) a second tip; wherein said first inner angled edge of said first outcrop of said blade and said second inner angled edge of said second outcrop of said blade form between them a substantially V-shaped opening; wherein said flat inner edge of said blade is for cutting off the inner point of said substantially V-shaped opening of said blade formed between said first outcrop of said blade and said second outcrop of said blade; wherein said substantially V-shaped opening of said blade is for partially encompassing a plant for facilitating uprooting thereof by permitting a user to press down upon soil therearound; wherein said first outcrop of said blade further comprises a first outer angled edge; wherein said second outcrop of said blade further comprises a second outer angled edge; wherein said blade further comprises a: a) first flat side; and b) a second flat side; wherein said shank extends to said flat inner edge of said blade; and wherein said flat inner edge of said blade is at an elevation that is higher than that of where said first outer angled edge of said first outcrop of said blade meets said first flat side of said blade and where said second outer angled edge of said second outcrop of said blade meets said second flat side of said blade.
