| Time tested, skillfully crafted, perfectly balance and ruggedly dependable. For over 200 years the fires of Spear & Jackson’s Sheffield, England forge have endured countless adaptations, perfections and innovations to yield the classic Heritage Range of tools. Only manufacturing heritage of this caliber could transform an ingot of the high carbon steel and a cord of kiln dried hardwood into truly heirloom quality tools.
The Spear and Jackson round point shovel may seem like a familiar tool, but with unfamiliar traits relative to many of the cheaply made Far East imports prevalent in today’s large chain stores.
This tool, in contrast, was built to last. The head, hand forged from a single piece of tempered steel, is hammered closed around the high, solid socket shaft. Providing a unsurpased leveraging strength between rock and roots as well as remarkably resistant to the shaft disconnecting from the head.
In comparison to the flat rolled steel of cheaper models, a hand forged tool allows the smith to taper the blade with decreasing thickness to ensure the narrowest, most penetrating edge is ready to meet the hardest of turfs. Epoxy coat for rust resistance. A contoured 54” shaft is lacquered for weatherproofing.
