Some pieces of equipment and tools we use regularly are so basic we hardly give them much though. One such tool is the humble garden spade. It may not be anything special to look at but the spade is probably the most essential piece of garden equipment you can own.Take a look at the spade a gardener uses and it will not be very different from the spade a gardener would have been using a hundred years ago. Some cheaper versions may have a plastic handle and weigh a lot less than its forbears but it looks pretty much the same as it did all that time ago.Modern manufacturing and design have changed the materials used for the handle, shaft and blade but the classic shape has remained because it is such an efficient design.

The Brook & Hunter Premium 41-inch Sharp Shooter spade has a beautifully hand crafted Red Oak handle attached to a stainless steel alloy blade. You get the old world craftsmanship and look of the solid hardwood handle and the benefit of a modern stainless steel blade which resists the tendency of dirt to cling to the blade which helps make digging easier.

This is a tool that should last many years to give long lasting value for money and great performance. Read More…
