General Info

Our business started small. We made a prototype hoe to show to relatives for Christmas 1990. They encouraged us to continue, and our business has continued to grow each year. Although we now have a more spacious building in the very rural town of Munden Kansas, we can honestly say that at first our business base was a vacant chicken house on our farm. Even at first, when our production was very limited, our customers kept informing us that we had a great product. We never would have believed people would actually write letters telling us how much they like our tools. We listened to the customers, and soon we began to add more models for specific applications. We now offer over 30 tools to meet most needs. Other things didn't change however. Each Rogue Tool is still hand crafted. The grinding, welding and sharpening are all done by hand, and quality is still our most distinguishing characteristic. We still make all of our hoes from recycled agricultural disc blades. Not just because it is an environmentally friendly thing to do, but also because it is the best tempered steel for the job. In fact, we feel confident that our Rogue field hoes are the strongest hoes made in the USA. Rogue Tools by Prohoe Manufacturing are in use in gardens from Washington to Florida. Thousands are in use by cotton growers, seed corn producers, and sugar beet and grape producers throughout the United States and Canada. Our 7 & 10 inch scrapers are used to clean sidewalks, driveways, carwashes, farm buildings, and more. The fire fighting/trail building tools are our newest models. An Oregon Hot Shot crew requested and suggested shapes and sizes that would fit their needs. We listened and we now have 9 models that are popular for fighting wild land fires and building trails. We invite you to experience the pleasure of using a quality tool in your operation, and we look forward to hearing from you.
