A hoe includes a handle and a blade. In some embodiments, the handle and the blade are connected via a connection member. The connection member permits flexing, which reduces how much shock is transmitted to the user with digging motions. In some embodiments, the blade includes one or more sections at different angles. The different angles accomplish a gripping effect, which reduces how much the hoe is driven out of the ground, as it is being pulled. Accordingly, fewer interruptions and digging motions are needed to cover an area, which one permits to finish faster. In some embodiments, the blade has a mouth that permits some of the soil to flow through it, as the hoe is being pulled. The flow may reshuffle the soil. Optionally, a tooth protrudes such that it further cuts the flow of the soil.
