Landscapers Select 34597 Shovel
Best heavy duty digging tool for home gardeners and landscapers.
This is the workhorse you want for heavy-duty digging where leverage matters more than precision. The fiberglass handle and oversized foot steps make breaking tough soil significantly easier, though the trade-off is a slightly heavier tool that lacks the nimble feel of a lighter, shorter spade.
