Radius Garden 23311, Root Slayer Perennial Shovel, Red

I have dug over 8,000 holes with this shovel in the hobby of Metal Detecting. I'm a senior citizen and my knees are bad, so I can't get down on the ground and dig with a hand trowel. The Radius Root slayer is the perfect compromise.The narrow fork tongued tip is great for digging small divots to pop out shallow targets, but the shovel widens out at the top and the serrated edges really do slay the roots making it possible to dig deep plugs if need be.The shovel is lightweight yet incredibly strong. I have leaned on it very heavily busting targets out from under large roots. I can't break it. Love the ergonomics of the shovel including the round handle. And I have even dug several perennials to help my wife in her garden and of course it is perfectly designed for that and works great.Reasonably priced and highly recommended!

I absolutely love this little shovel. It means business! Being able to shovel while doing serious yard work on your knees saves your back and saves time.

When you need to dig some hard soil this is just the tool you need. Very light and efficient. It digs the hard soil the usual tool couldn’t. Very recommend
