I make a lot- some would say Too much- use of a small pick, sharpened. It does a good job, but I'll bet the Fokin hoe would be even better !

Pamela, I agree, I know the Fokin hoe would be so much better. It is such a versatile tool. I have been wanting this tool but have not got around to ordering since I was in the process of moving. I had a scythe but it does not work well even when sharpened plus this being sharpened on all sides makes it so versatile. To have a tool that has so many uses instead of one tool for one thing would be awesome especially right now with limited space to store tools.

I have known Yuri for a long time and watched him build his business. He only sells quality. Even though I am currently not on my homestead it would make quick and easy work here in town for my yard and garden especially since I do a no till garden and prefer to use this instead of mowing.

For those who have not seen this wonderful tool in action here is a 1 min video.

I've had ploskoretz for awhile. Both sizes are very helpful. I have a long handle on the large one and a hand tool sized handle on the smaller one. I've shared them as gifts. My gardener friends like them too.

Has anyone had these shipped to the US recently? Like since January?

Am I going to end up with a bill at the PO?

Thanks in advance.
