Can I clean, sharpen and oil my Fokin hoe for a BB? Or does it have to be a shovel?

For the clean, sharpen, and oil a shovel, it probably HAS to be a shovel.

However, there are two BBs that might apply.  You can put a new handle on a wedge handle tool (including a fokken hoe) or you can remove rust, clean, and oil a hand tool.

Maybe it could be added to one of the sharpen lists, but at this point, most of the BBs are fairly fixed - especially with the book project moving forward (and the Kickstarter).  A few months ago, I asked if a Peavey could be added to the pin handle tool list and that was granted.

That would qualify as a hand tool.
