Found while fishing

Found this hoe' below a Dam/Water while fishing! Any idea of the age?

Have no Idea of the age. I found on just like it at an old saw mill site in California. The mill ceased to exist in the early 1900's HHHH

It could be modern. We use them to mix/shake mortar. For some reason they are way more expensive than a hoe with no holes.

Is there even such a thing?

I'm not %100 on this...just my thinking on it. I don't think it can be very old. I'm thinking maybe 1950ish...if that. It seams to me that if it were any older then that it wouldn't have that shape. It would have been more of a triangle shaped blade.

Just had another thought too. I'm pretty sure that the ones with holes are specifically for mixing/working with concrete. I could be wrong but if I'm right then again I think it's relatively new. Your pic even looks like it has some old dried concrete still on the blade.
