Description
What sets this spade apart from other long-handled digging tools is how strong yet lightweight and easy to maneuver it is when completing heavy digging jobs.
Weighing 4 lbs 6 oz, this spade stands about 43" tall with a durable ash shaft set in a deep socket. The 11 1/2" × 7" head is made from rust-resistant stainless steel and has foot treads to prevent damage to your footwear and your arches.
The spade exceeds the British standard of 121 lb of prying force at the end of the handle without breaking; however, it is not indestructible and should not be used to uproot saplings or move boulders. As with any wooden-handled tool, we do not recommend leaving it outdoors in the rain.
The digging spade is also available in a set with a matching fork.
