About this deal

A slightly shorter handle aids manoeuvrability, making it ideal for smaller plots or gardeners who prefer a more compact tool. One foot should be positioned on the spade before digging so that your weight levers it into the ground.

The Burgon and Ball RHS Endorsed Ladies Groundbreaker Spade is a super tough, good looking spade with pointed sharpened head for significantly easier digging and a FSC ash handle with comfortable ‘Y’ grip.When using a garden spade, it is important to use proper technique to avoid injury and to get the best results. Like all our RHS-endorsed stainless steel tools, this small Groundbreaker spade is covered by our lifetime guarantee. Please note: take care not to place excessive strain on wooden handles when levering out roots or rocks in very firm soil. The 103 third parties who use cookies on this service do so for their purposes of displaying and measuring personalized ads, generating audience insights, and developing and improving products. Choosing the best garden spade for you and your garden will depend on the tasks you are looking to tackle.

Unfortunately, there are some areas that we are unable to deliver to including Northern Ireland, The Isle of Man, The Isle of Wight, Scottish Isles and The Channel Isles.The last step before hanging up your spade for winter is to oil the blade, along with any wooden elements. However, the strapped socket and raised rivets on the shaft snag on hands when lifting and turning the earth, and testers felt the treads were too narrow to stop slipping on wet muddy digs.

After each use, clean soil off the blade and handle as it can cause carbon steel to rust and wood to rot. I love this spade, it makes digging planting holes much easier on my heavy soil which is sticky when wet and rock hard when dry. Other considerations will include value for money, along with the weight, length, shaft and the materials the garden spade is made from. This distinctive spade has been tested to a breaking strain of 90kg, compared with the British standard of 55kg. The blade is usually about 6-8 inches wide and 12-16 inches long, and is designed to be sharp enough to cut through soil and roots.

The T-grip is suitable for all hand sizes and is good for applying force to the spade but if you’re not used to the shape, they can feel flimsy.
