Lijkt een solide schep, maar hij is veel te kort. Dit kost je je rug. En ik ben ‘maar’ 1,80m. Geen aanrader want het lijkt wel een schep voor kinderen.

This spade/shovel by Spear & Jackson has not changed over the years. In fact the top handle design (see picture) has improved. The forged steel blade, thickened at point of high stress where it connects to the handle, is virtually indestructible. See second picture. A far cry from almost all other manufacturers who use a pressed steel sheet of constant thickness, albeit hardened, to do the same job. The highly competitive price from Amazon was also another welcome surprise. This spade replaces another almost identical one that I had for 20 years, bought in New Zealand whilst on a work assignment, bringing it home with me to California.

Serve solo come mezzo di emergenza da portare in macchina in campagna o sulla neve. Per l'uso comune, è una piccola pala, non una vanga professionale.

Stabiler Spaten mit guter Qualität. Der Y-Griff ist gut, ebenfalls die Stiellänge. Für diesen Preis ist der Spaten sehr gut.

After breaking two spades I was fed up of the weak points in spades that could not stand up to digging out shrubs or small trees. This spade attracted me but I was sceptical. However after using this for a year or two now and for some serious digging, I can recommend it. Love it!

This is my favorite spade I’ve ever owned, far and away. Ive used it in my personal garden and professionally doing landscape design, and it makes light work of a days worth of planting!
