The spade is an essential tool, designed for lifting, turning, and loosening and crumbling the soil deeply, in loose, non-rocky soils and on small surfaces. Fertiliser (well-decomposed compost, organic fertiliser, horse manure...) can be incorporated into the soil at the same time it is turned. The spade, with its sharp edges, is also used for digging, cutting roots, or pulling out certain vegetable plants (leeks, potatoes, carrots, turnips). This model is equipped with a stainless steel head that is corrosion-resistant and has a sharpened cutting edge that easily penetrates all soils that are not too compact and rocky. This edge is specially rounded to allow for quick and efficient soil turning. The footrests allow you to use your weight to drive it in without cutting your boots. The renowned Novagrip handle, known for its durability and user comfort, is made up of three materials including fibreglass, copolymer polypropylene, and elastomer. The handle is sold as a separate part and is very easy to replace.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
