Best Shovel Ever!

This shovel does everything that the description promises. It's great for digging planting holes in my flower beds. Cuts through roots like butter. Love how I can easily step on the flat part to dig up builder's junk left under the dirt ( bricks, rocks, etc) and giant clay deposits. It's light weight and small enough for my small hands! FYI I'm a woman turning 70 this month and it's perfect for me!

The slayer of roots and whatever else is down ther

Not only does it chop the roots and slays whatever is down there, it cuts nicely into the soil and allows precise cuts. I use it to dig holes for my bushes and plants. Once I loosened up the ground with "the slayer" I use a traditional shovel to get the soil out. For me it's worth it, saves my back and patience!
