Mater Shin's Anvil #65 Weeding Hoe

The Master Shin #65 Weeding Hoe is the larger of Master Shin In-Young’s weeding hoes, handcrafted by the renowned Korean blacksmith for more reach and coverage across the bed. Its blade is forged from repurposed carbon steel—the same tough steel reclaimed from railroad tracks—holding an edge that slices cleanly through soil, clears weeds at the root, and turns ground quickly across open rows.

The handle is shaped from chestnut or oak that has been shade-dried for years to settle its weight, stability, and natural water resistance, giving a balanced, comfortable grip that holds up season after season. Each tool reflects centuries of Korean blacksmithing heritage, embodying precision, simplicity, and functional elegance.
