## Description

Durable, lightweight shovel with heat-treated steel blade, deep scoop, and reinforced foot treads for increased traction and pressure when moving various materials.

Review: Worth the money - Brilliant, the shovel having curved edges made the job so much easier as it stopped the small stones falling off the shovel like a traditional spade would have done.
Review: Solid bit of kit – like all Roughneck tools - I’ve got quite a few Roughneck tools now and they’ve never let me down. This shovel’s no different - really solid build, decent weight (not too heavy), and a good sturdy handle with a comfortable grip. Size is spot on for general garden and DIY jobs, and it doesn’t seem to rust even after being left out a few times in bad weather. Can’t go wrong with Roughneck - always reliable, proper workhorse gear.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Re my previous question on length...I know it says 42" in the desc but my spade was also described as 42", but is 46", I hoped someone could confirm?**
A: If you measured it along it’s curved length then it will be an inch or two longer.

**Q: Can anyone please tell me how long this shovel is, from top of handle to tip of blade? I'm 6' 2" and hope it is about 46", same as my Roughneck Spade**
A: This shovel is 42" long, shorter than you were looking for, but it suits me fine and I am also 6'2". Don't forget that a spade has to go below ground level for digging holes, but a shovel is for shifting material that is piled on top of the ground or out of a bag so it does not need to be as long.
