This is an antique or vintage handheld plow for turning the soil. The person pushes this through the soil to turn the soil for planting.
This is a antique Tiller/plow for breaking up your land for planting and sowing in seed!
This is a "walk-behind" turning plow. Usually a horse would be tied to lead.
The item is a horse-drawn tiller or ripper. A horse would be hooked above the gauge wheel in the front. The wheel is to control the depth of the plows.
I believe this is an old HARROW. It is pulled by an animal or tractor that is hooked to the metal hook above the wheel. The two wooden handles at the rear are for a person to hold onto and walk behind to balance and steer the harrow. The tall metal handle on the right rear has a second grip handle that the user can regulate how deep the harrow tines go down into the soil. The harrow is at an angle front to back so the tines make planting rows side by side. Plowing is done first to turn over sod/soil. Then a set of disks are dragged over same area to break up the large chunks the plowing left.
