Just a boring fur trade hoe found amongst the cool stuff. A few days in the tank and it came out looking good...for a hoe. IMG_20170726_225610.jpgIMG_20170726_225602.jpg

I wouldnt say that is boring. Awesome find.
Definitely in great shape the colonial tools I have Doug were just pure rust that thing almost looks like you could use it again

Leave it in 6parts water 1 part molasses for 4 weeks. Will have pitting but no rust.

Man alive, I like your fur trade hoe find! It was a very practical item to get at the time too. A nice tool like that would beat mirrors and beads all hollow.

You beat me to the joke.

Seriously nice. That's a nicer design than what you can get at Home Depot.

That's actually true! This one is probably a million times the quality of anything made today. They don't make dem' hoes like they used to (my wife rolled her eyes because I just read that to her out loud).
 

Awesome hoe from the past.....really good condition for the age....Congrats !!
 

Found one just like yours a few weeks ago.
Very cool relic
 

Consensus is: Grown men like ol' hoes.
I'm liking it, and congrats on bringing it home and cleaning it up.
 

very cool find and a great job of cleaning it up. you know that hoe was sorely missed by someone or was it? I could see a kid intentionally losing it!

OK since everyone is jumping on the band wagon, Isn't the old profession a form of fur trade? Yeah I said it.
