Roughneck ROU68044 Long Handled Serrated Edge Shovel,Yellow & Black,1460mm/57½"

I’ve only used it once so far, but I really enjoyed working with it. I had to dig through rough, stony ground, and it handled the job well. You wouldn’t think there’s much room for innovation in a shovel, but modern design has proved otherwise!I’m 187 cm tall, and the size of the shovel is just right for me. It’s also well-balanced and ergonomic, with a good weight to it.I wish my dad had garden tools like this back in his gardening days - it would have made the experience much more enjoyable than I remember :)

Brilliant digging spade. Dug a patio base section out with it. I thought I might miss the D handle but you get used to it quickly. The long pole makes it easier to work with because of a better balance and more leverage, better for your back too in my opinion. For info, this long handle spade is about 2.6kg, the D shape version is about 2.1kg. So the extra weight and the serrated edge both help to pierce the grass and soil fairly easily. Roughneck product is also very robust. Would highly recommend.

Excellent shovel ideal for heavy-duty work, it takes no prisoners.

Makes life easy

Very good

Excellent quality. All metal construction with long handle and ideal for rough hard digging getting tree roots out etc. Expensive but you get what you pay for, it's a real persuader and is going to last an amateur gardener a lifetime. Great Value for money and virtually unbreakable..I dug up a mature hedge with it that a standard spade wouldn't touch and it hardly drew breath, its a monster! If you've got small trees, big shrubs to get out the ground then this is your boy. Downside is it's heavy but that's because it's so we'll made.

Excellent product, really well made and robust.

Moved a couple of ton bags of type 1 with this. Found it to be excellent. Nice to hold. Strong blade. Great long handle.
