Rabbiting Spade
Best durable tool for demanding garden digging tasks.
This hand-forged tool is built for the kind of heavy-duty digging that snaps lesser shovels in half. While its narrow, specialized profile is designed for precision work like trenching and clearing, the trade-off is a smaller blade surface that requires more effort for moving large volumes of soil.
