5-Inch Garden Hoe (#2) Painted.
Garden Tools Restoration: 5-Inch Garden Hoe (#2)
Another really nice finish on an old-ish tool (purchased in the late 80s?). This is a modern tool without any notable value but it now has a second life.
I painted the feral metallic green and blade flat black. Originally both where blue and lightly rusted.
This hoe was standing on end for 10+ years and the end of the handle rotted away. I was able to salvage the originally handle but it is a few inches shorter then it originally was.
