Krumpholz Hand-Forged Mid-Reach Spade | 55cm

Premium German craftsmanship

A mid-reach spade crafted using traditional German forging techniques. The broad, shallow head and 45cm ash T-handle are designed for planting, transplanting and dividing without the strain.

At 420g, this is a light and precise tool rather than a heavy digging spade. The T-handle gives you leverage and control through the wrist and the forged head holds an edge through repeated work in loose and friable soil.

Perfect for Australian conditions

This is a spade for planting season. It excels in moist, worked soil when you are putting in tubestock, lifting and relocating established clumps, or dividing perennials such as lomandra, dianella and poa.

Key features

Forged from high-carbon steel using high-quality German manufacturing, the head is shaped for scooping and lifting. The mid-length handle brings the work up off the ground, which suits gardeners who find sustained kneeling difficult.
