Its narrow, 130 mm wide spade blade made of solid forged carbon steel is ideal for digging planting holes, preparing fence post holes, and working in hard or clay soil. The reinforced tread edges make it easier to penetrate the ground. A particularly long steel socket connects the spade head to the ash wood handle. The metal Y-grip provides a practical hand position for digging and moving soil. Narrow Spade Blade for Targeted Earthworks The spade blade is 130 mm wide, making it narrower than many traditional garden spades. This design is suitable for tasks where soil needs to be removed from a confined area. These tasks include digging planting holes for young trees, relocating suitable shrubs, and preparing narrow holes for fence posts. The narrow blade width can also help minimize disturbance to adjacent soil areas while digging. Solid Forged Carbon Steel The spade head is made from solid forged carbon steel. This construction is intended for demanding digging tasks where the tool is repeatedly driven into hard soil and soil is moved. The spade can be used for planting, creating hedges, and general landscaping work. Its robust construction is also designed for suitable digging tasks in heavy clay soil. Reinforced Tread Edges for Firm Ground The spade blade features reinforced tread edges. They provide a defined surface for the foot when additional pressure is needed to drive the blade into the ground. The tread edges support power transfer and a controlled foot position during repeated digging movements, which is particularly helpful in firm soil and heavy ground. Particularly Long Steel Socket A key design feature of the 1047MY is the extended steel socket. It connects the forged spade head to the wooden handle. Its additional length supports the stability of this connection area during tasks such as digging, lifting, and moving soil. The exact length of the socket is not specified in the provided product information. Powder-Coated Spade Head The spade head has a protective powder coating. This offers additional protection against moisture, rust, and surface wear. The coating aids in the maintenance of the tool during regular use in gardening and landscaping. After use, it is advisable to remove any adhering soil and store the spade as dry as possible. Ash Wood Handle with Metal Y-Grip The spade is equipped with a traditional ash wood handle. At the top, there is a Y-shaped metal grip. This combination allows for controlled handling when driving the spade in as well as lifting and relocating soil. The Y-grip provides a defined grip position for repeated digging movements. An FSC certification or special surface treatment of the ash wood handle is not indicated in the provided product information. For Planting, Fencing, and Landscaping The Spear \u0026 Jackson 1047MY is suitable for garden owners, landscapers, and users who need to regularly dig narrow holes or targeted planting openings. The combination of a narrow steel blade, reinforced tread edges, long socket, and ash wood handle makes the spade a suitable tool for demanding manual earthworks. Suitable Applications: Digging planting holes for young trees Planting and relocating suitable shrubs Preparing fence post holes Creating hedges and woody plantings Digging in firm and clay soils Excavating narrow trenches Earthworks in confined garden areas Targeted removal and movement of soil General planting and landscaping tasks Technical Specifications Brand: Spear \u0026 Jackson Product Reference: 1047MY Product Type: Planting and Rabbiting Spade English Name: Solid Socket Planting \u0026 Rabbiting Spade Spade Blade: Narrow Blade Width: 130 mm Blade Material: Solid forged carbon steel Surface Treatment: Powder-coated Tread Edges: Reinforced Socket: Extended steel socket Handle Material: Ash wood Grip: Y-shaped metal grip Operation: Manual Main Applications: Planting work, fence post holes, narrow earthworks Warnings: Use with caution to avoid injury.
