Another fine company is Bellota, out of the Basque country in Spain- I have a 10yr-old catalog and one eye hoe, beautifully forged of incredible steel- double-ended, a three-inch chisel & two 5/8 inch prongs on the other. They also manufacture in Venezuela. -Rick Rick Valley Northern Groves PO Box 1236, Philomath, OR 97370 Mobile-(541)602-1315, hm.& msg.
