The spade seems relatively sturdy but is yet to be put under any great load. I broke the last all steel one.

I like that it is light. The blade is a decent thickness but again time will tell.

So far it has coped with the heavy clay we have.

It doesn't feel as substantial as my last one but as I said it's lighter.

Great lightweight tool.

It’s very light, which I like, seems sturdy, I’ve been abusing it since I got it and it’s taken it without issue.
The stickers on the shovel bit are stuck on with some serious adhesive, ideally I would have loved to remove them before using the tool but it would have taken me a week. This means it now leaves little bits of the sticker as I use it, no big deal, but is there really a need to stick those on so hard?!

Decent shovel. I was surprised how wide the top of the shovel was compared to it's tip which made it harder to excavate the trench I was working on. But decent quality and big help in speeding up the job.

Excellent quality
