The Senlis spade is a garden tool designed for intensive work in heavy soil with few stones. It is a spade with a long and narrow blade that is used for deep soil preparation work, requiring precision and strength as in the case of clay soils. It is also used by nurserymen to uproot trees or bushes with a significant root system. The blade polished on both sides, easily penetrates these types of soil, and its edges provide a blunt point of support for the foot, for maximum comfort of use. Use it also to incorporate fertilisers and soil amendments such as manure, and for transplanting. It can also be used for small earthworks and especially for digging trenches for drainage pipes or when creating a hedge. Its ash wood handle is both lightweight and weather-resistant. It is compostable, the metal head is recyclable.
