southern MN | Glad you found it. Safely, one way or another. I remember you asking about it earlier.
It is interesting the different terms we use, north from the south. We have disks up here, I often hear a harrow, or disk harrow, from your part of the country. Disks have blades, harrows have teeth here.
That shank would look like a field cultivator up here - some call it a digger. Relatively light weight and with a wider shovel on the bottom. Up here a chisel plow is a much tougher stronger shank with more of a point on it, or a curled 4 inch wide point. A shovel like that wouldn’t hold up in the deep hard ground a chisel plow goes to.
No wrong or right on this, I just find it interesting how local terminology evolves for the same machine. | |
