The Cape Cod Weeder, (designed decades ago by a woman living on Cape Cod ) was a regional favorite until the late 1980's when Snow & Neally of Bangor, Maine began to market it nationwide. It is now well on its way to ubiquity. This version adheres closely to the original design albeit with a longer shank and shorter handle.

Forged it a bit thicker for longer life and better performance on overgrown weeds. The tool cuts on both the forward and back stroke -- it's a scuffle hoe -- and can be turned on its side and driven in by its point to nick out weeds snuggled up to valuable plants.
