Skoffelskare – Sweep Blades

These are cutting tools used in agriculture, attached to hoes or other tillage equipment, primarily for soil cultivation, weed control, and breaking up the soil surface. Sweep blades are designed to cut through the soil at shallow depths, removing weeds and aerating the soil without disrupting the soil structure too much. They come in various sizes and shapes to suit different types of agricultural machinery and field conditions.
