The jointed hoe is an essential tool for gardening, and one of the first to acquire due to its versatility. It is a double-headed and double-purpose tool. The flat and diamond-shaped side of the head, called the "panne", allows for weeding by scraping the surface of the soil, hoeing, or hilling by piling up soil around the base of plants, or digging the soil. Meanwhile, the pointed side, the tongue, in the shape of a swan's neck, picks or loosens the surface soil by dislodging the roots of weeds. In the vegetable garden, the jointed hoe allows for digging a furrow in the soil to prepare for sowing, in line with a marked line using a string. Precious for working the soil in small spaces, this jointed hoe can maneuver around plants that are too close together for a wider hoe to pass through. This model consists of a long 150 cm (59in) long handle made of linden wood, which will protect your back, and a 18 cm (7in) wide head made of copper alloy. The handle of this jointed hoe is compostable, and the metal head is recyclable.

The copper head, which releases micro-particles into the soil with use, helps improve it with this natural soil component.
