Master gardener says this is the best shovel!
I bought it as a gift for a great habitat restoration group in Marin, Ca called SPAWN. Was on their wishlist. They were thrilled.

The Tool for a Lifetime
I bought this excellent shovel for my daughter-in-law to tackle the Black Swamp clay in her new yard. She knew the clay is super heavy (like molding clay) in the spring and becomes concrete by July. She said she never could have planted her 7 roses without it. People around here break tools digging in our clay. She really liked the thinner/longer dimensions - penetrated the clay efficiently.

The Gold Standard for Spades
My Clarington Forge Poachers Spade stands out as one of my favorite tools, hands down. Its design offers exceptional balance and durability, with a handle that provides a comfortable, ergonomic grip. The construction is robust enough for heavy-duty tasks such as planting trees and shrubs, yet its compact size and lightweight build make it equally effective for precision work like planting annuals and perennials. This tool has become an essential part of my kit—alongside my secateurs, it’s the one item I never leave behind.

strong and sturdy
The perfect size for digging holes for perennials. Replaces my beloved Poacher's Spade from Smith and Hawken that is probably buried under the compost pile ;)

High Quality garden spade
This spade is an absolute pleasure to use. It is more manageable than the square edged spade I have been using. The handle grip is comfortable and the length It is ideal for a shorter person.
