This distinctive spade has been tested to a breaking strain of 100kg – that’s 82% stronger than the British standard. To save your back, it has a longer handle than most spades, crafted in hardwood. The handle is topped with a comfortable 'Y' grip, double riveted at the base for strength. An extra-long, double-riveted strapped socket introduces strength and an element of flex at this key joint.

Our stainless steel large Groundbreaker spade is endorsed by the Royal Horticultural Society, perhaps the ultimate gardening accolade. Like all our RHS-endorsed stainless steel tools, this Groundbreaker spade is covered by our lifetime guarantee.
