Forged and hardened tool with cutting edge and smooth, comfortable grip. A great tool for planting flowers and plants, but also very practical in the vegetable garden. The strength and resistance of steel is key for gardening tools, but so is the finish. The FELCO planting spade is sharpened from top to bottom, so it is very easy to use for digging. If the soil conditions are good, just press the shovel into the soil, pull it towards you and place the plant without digging a hole. This can only be done with the best tools.
