A.M. Leonard Forged Steel Round Point Shovel, 51 Inch Ash Handle

Product Description

A.M. Leonard round-point blade pro shovel has a 51 inch ash wood handle for comfort and a 12 gauge forged head for blade strength . This classic design of this head will not bend under use, and the forged back will not fill with dirt. The wood handle has grain that runs perpendicular to the shovel to allow for maximum leverage strength. Lifetime warranty. Handle lacquered for weather resistance. White Ash is the best wooden handle material known, lightweight but very durable. Handle widens slightly at the end to provide firm hand grip. The strongest of all blade types, this head and shank are forged from a single bar of steel. Solid shank means there isn't any place for soil to catch and build up at the bottom of the shank, like an open back style. Deeply curved bowl makes it easier to carry soil, gravel, or other product from one location to another. High blade lift means you don't have to bend over so far to get soil out of a hole you are digging. Turned step is easier on your feet, especially when wearing soft-soled shoes. The round point is designed to make penetration faster and easier.
