The spade is an essential tool, designed for lifting, turning, and loosening and crumbling the soil deeply, in non-stony soils and on small surfaces. Fertiliser (well-decomposed compost, organic fertiliser, horse manure) can be incorporated into the soil at the same time it is turned. With its sharp edges, it is also used for digging, cutting roots, or uprooting certain vegetable plants (leeks, potatoes, carrots, turnips). This model is equipped with a steel head that is fully hardened, giving it a hardness rating of 40/50 HRC and exceptional wear resistance. Its sharpened cutting edge easily penetrates all soils that are not too compact and not very stony. This edge is specially rounded for quick and efficient soil turning. The footrests help you to drive the tool into the ground without cutting your boots. Its lightweight handle, made of 100% PEFC certified wood, is sold as a separate part and is very easy to replace. Its apple-shaped form makes it easy to use as a lever while providing power to the manoeuvres.
