Key Features of the Jackson Pony Mortar Hoe (Model # 203-450 or similar)
• Design & Use: This is a versatile “pony” style hoe with a 7-inch wide x 6-inch high forged steel blade, sharpened on both edges for efficient cutting and mixing. The blade is offset at a 45-degree angle to the handle, making it ideal for scooping and spreading wet concrete or mortar without straining your back. It’s perfect for:
• Mixing batches in wheelbarrows or on hods.
• Applying thin-set mortar for tile or block laying.
• Smoothing concrete in forms or patching masonry joints.
• General plastering/stucco work on walls.
• Handle: Comes with a sturdy 54-inch straight hardwood handle (or optional fiberglass for lighter weight). The “pony” refers to its compact, balanced size—easier to maneuver than full-sized hoes for overhead or tight-space masonry tasks.
• Build Quality: All-steel head with a welded ferrule for secure attachment; rust-resistant powder-coated finish. Weighs about 4-5 lbs, so it’s robust but not overly heavy for all-day use.
