Description

The Root Slayer 42-Inch Carbon Steel Trench Spade is a durable turf edger tool that gives you optimal leverage for more digging power and wide foot placement that allows you to dig deeper, while also functioning as a root saw. The blade is capable of penetrating hard-packed soil and entangled roots. You can now make perfect channels and trenches with less effort. It is a narrower version of the Root Slayer Shovel, yet it has the same heavy-duty digging capabilities of the original Root Slayer.

  • Love this tool
Style: Nomad
Can't believe I lived so long without this tool. It's great for digging, pulling up weeds. Light enough for long use.

  • This is just the best little shovel I have ever used, I love it!
Style: Nomad
It is the most wonderful small shovel for my garden because it is not big and bulky and it is such a clever design, sharp, and easy for someone older like me to use. I have purchased two of these now and gave the first one to a gardener friend.

  • Excellent Root Slayer
Style: Nomad
Does what it advertises. Narrow, light weight, and not only cuts roots straight down but it has jagged teeth on the sides that cut surrounding roots as well.....

  • Great for metal detecting
Style: Nomad
My husband and son enjoy metal detecting in area parks and on properties where structures used to sit. This shovel is fantastic at breaking up roots and getting them in the dirt ti find their “treasures.”
