Quality


Sturdy sharp … gives me a chance in the toughest of root conditions


Ive had it for 3 years no rust still sharp sturdy even though i use it to pry up large rocks roots


They all had fiberglass handles and they were the most heavy duty shovels that could be bought… not very strong


Took fifteen minutes to dig a hole and plant our tree versus and hour with our last shovel which in the end broke

More than covered the cost in the first hour yesterday vs hiring it done for me


Shovels like this usually cost so much more
