Abstract:
A cultivating tool for removing weeds and unwanted grass and for cultivating ground around and under an object under which a standard hoe or a hula-type hoe cannot fit. The cultivating tool has a thin scraping blade at the lower end of an elongated handle with a blade assembly interconnecting the handle and an upwardly disposed mounting standard on the upper surface of the scraping blade. The blade assembly includes a mechanism that connects to the lower end of the handle and a pivoting mechanism that pivots the scraping blade relative to the handle. The blade assembly connects the scraping blade to the handle in a manner which maintains the spaced area above both ends of the blade unobstructed so the scraping blade may slide under a plant without harming the plant and under an object to remove weeds and grass.
