• Enhanced Control: D-grip handle offers extra leverage and stability during deep digging.
• Durable & Reliable: Carbon-steel blade and solid wood shaft endure heavy use without flex or fatigue.
• Precision Digging: Pointed tip cuts into hard or compacted ground easily.
• Job-Site Ready: Balanced design means one-handed control with consistent performance across tasks.

Landscape Ideas

• Concrete or Brick Cleanups: Useful for cleaning mix debris in post installations or foundations.

How to Use It

1. Grip the D-handle firmly and position the pointed blade at the ground surface.
2. Drive into soil using body weight, potentially stepping on the ferrule for extra force.
3. Pull back and lift to remove dirt, then deposit at a nearby work area or wheelbarrow.
4. Use the pointed tip to break hard soils or to knock roots apart during digging.
5. After use, rinse blade clean to remove debris and prevent corrosion.

Coverage Example

Each scoop holds roughly 3–4 L of soil. To excavate around a standard 300 mm tree pit (~0.05 m³), expect to perform approximately 15–20 scoops—ideal for efficient, compact work.
