Baack® Holsteiner Rüffel Spade, D-handle, 115 cm

Description

Hand-forged

Preferred spade length if you are not taller than 185 cm (6 ft).

All-round spade for professional and hobby gardeners.
  • Edge treads protect shoes from damage
  • Special forging technique allows blade to be shaped without tapered handle opening, yet ensuring the same stability; thus the blade does not have any areas where the soil can accumulate
  • Ergonomic ash handle with natural finish for a secure grip
  • The blade gets thinner towards the edge, »sharpens itself« during use and penetrates the ground without effort
  • Trapezoidal blade reduces friction
  • 10 year warranty on the spade blade
Baack® Spaten
Since 1878, Baack has forged spades from a single piece of the finest carbon steel in the tradition of the old masters. More than 150 hammer blows compact the steel, giving the blade exceptional resistance to breakage and outstanding wear resistance. Decades of experience result in tools that enjoy an excellent reputation among professionals in tree nurseries, landscaping and construction.
D-handle: The continuous handle piece allows effortless working, because the fingers do not have to be spread, contrary to the T-handle. The handle of the spade is straight and the blade is slightly angled. This model is therefore designed for more precise work such as cutting out root balls.
Spade length: If you are taller than 185 cm (6 ft) , standard spades are often too short and not ergonomical to use. Therefore, a spade with a longer handle is recommended. By rule of thumb: When you extend your forearm out in front of you (keeping the upper arm by your body), the spade should reach your outstretched hand. This will ensure comfortable digging and avoid straining your back.
