With a pointed leading edge, this sharp spade is great for penetrating into difficult ground to dig, plant and cut roots - the tapered head being ideal for crowded borders where precision is key.

The spade has a longer handle for easier digging in hard to reach areas, with less bending - helping you avoid the backache that usually goes hand in hand with long digging sessions!

The spade is forged from stainless steel and finished with an FSC-certified ash wood handle with an ergonomic T-grip. Supplied with a 10-year guarantee on steel parts (1 year for the handle).

Please note: take care not to place excessive strain on wooden handles when levering out roots or rocks in very firm soil. To help, water the area well to soften ground first. A crowbar may be more suitable for very heavy or stubborn obstacles.

Measurements:
Head W18cm x L20cm
