## Description

Spear & Jackson 2000AC Taper Mouth No.2 Tubular Steel Shovel, Grey : desertcart.co.uk: Garden

Review: Solid, no-nonsense shovel—built to last, digs deep, and handles tough ground without fuss. - Used this for trenching, rubble clearing, and general site work on clay-heavy ground. No flex, no drama—just gets on with it. The MYD handle gives a solid grip even with gloves, and the tapered blade cuts clean through compacted soil and rough terrain. Build quality’s spot on—heavy-duty steel, clean welds, and the paint holds up after repeated use. It’s a proper bit of kit that feels like it’ll outlast cheaper gear by miles. Ideal for builders, landscapers, or anyone who needs gear that won’t quit halfway through the shift. Only minor gripe: it’s a bit weighty if you’re used to lighter tools, but that’s the trade-off for serious durability.
Review: A real heavy duty, solid tool. - This past year I have been trying to landscape and drain a garden consisting entirely of heavy clay soil. This stuff is serious clay - you could take a lump and throw a pot with it on the spot, and there's lots of rock in it as well. I'm purchased the toughest looking spade I could find and I'm happy to say this has not let me down. It has taken any abuse I've thrown at it, even basically using it like a pick axe and a lever bar to force my way through brutal ground. The narrowness of it makes it ideal because you aren't trying to remove such a large amount of this heavy material. Size really doesn't matter - I've dug a hole 1m diameter by 2m deep with it! It has a good amount of weight and you feel no fear in bringing it crashing down on whatever you are desperately trying to dislodge. It appears unbreakable and now a permanent part of my novice gardening armoury.
