I waited a year for this spade to be reintroduced and it was well worth the wait. It feels like a heavy duty spade should....it will last forever.

The best horticultural spade anywhere...

I have used this spade for my whole working life, and have worn down many of them. After trying a couple others when I borrowed them from other people, nothing compares to the comfort, weight, and durability of this spade. Lighter all-steel and plastic composite spades are junk! They make you work harder, the result is inferior, my joints hurt much more at the end of the day, and I cannot work as long in a day. Other spades have an improper blade angle, the handles are ergonomically poor, and they must have been designed by people who never used them. I hope Leonard keeps this spade in perpetuity. It is truly a professional grade tool. Every time a landscape customer sees this spade, they ask me to get them one. Why pay for plastic or tube steel when you could have this wonderful heavy steel spade for only a fraction more? It's superior ability to tackle virtually any horticultural work with ease is well worth every penny!
