Digging Spades with T Grips

A wooden T crossbar and a wide rectangular digging blade define this spade. A long socket joins the handle to the head, and the upper blade edge forms a broad foot step.

A slim 5.5 cm blade has a straight cutting edge beneath two projecting foot steps. The long ash shaft ends in a T grip for controlled digging in confined rocky ground.

The narrow rock-spade head concentrates the working edge into a much smaller width than a border spade. Compare its near-parallel blade and broad projecting steps with tapered drain spades and wider digging heads.

This digging spade combines a rounded cutting edge with wide forged foot steps. Its ash T handle and compact head support precise planting holes and soil cuts between established plants.

The curved mouth lets the cutting edge enter the soil progressively across its width. Broad shoulder platforms give more room for foot pressure when working in firm garden beds.

A compact 15 cm border blade has a gently curved cutting edge and two narrow foot steps. Its reinforced socket carries a straight ash shaft with a wooden T grip.

The 22 cm blade is smaller than a full-width digging-spade head and suits close work between plants. Compare its slim welded steps and compact head with broad rolled-tread spades.

A compact rectangular border blade has plain shoulders and a gently curved cutting edge. It joins a straight ash shaft with a wooden T grip.

The plain shoulders form a narrower upper outline than the stepped border model. Compare its 22 cm blade with full-sized 27 cm digging heads when choosing tools for close work between plants.

A broad flat blade narrows to a pointed cutting tip beneath plain shoulders. A straight ash shaft and wooden T grip complete the digging layout.

The flat pointed blade presents a different cutting profile from a rectangular border spade. Compare its unturned blade edges with a curved scoop shovel when selecting a soil-cutting tool.

A broad forged blade has rounded lower corners and two foot steps. A long socket connects it to a fibre shaft with a padded T grip.

The fibre T grip provides a different hand position from a closed D frame. Compare the broad rounded cutting edge with a straight narrow trenching blade when selecting tools for turning garden soil.

Four large cutting points form a zigzag edge across a flat blade. The plain shoulders and curved socket lead to a fibre shaft with a padded T grip.

The large points cut a different profile from the small central serrations of a V-notch transplanting spade. Compare the tread-free shoulders and fibre T handle with stepped root-cutting models for work in dense soil.
