grub hoe
Root-clearing garden tool
A grub hoe is a heavy hand tool with a thick, narrow blade set perpendicular to the handle, used for digging in hard soil, breaking up roots, and clearing brush.
The blade is heavier and narrower than a standard garden hoe, designed for chopping rather than scraping.
Also called a grubbing hoe: We needed a grub hoe to get through the clay and root mass.
