Spear and Jackson Spades

Spear and Jackson Spades at Tooled-Up.com

Spear and Jackson Spades cover digging, border work, trenching and grafting, with options for everything from a small flower bed to heavy ground on a landscaping site. Tooled-Up.com stocks the Elements, Select, Neverbend and Solid Forged lines, so you can match the blade shape, steel finish and build quality to the job.

The selection includes full-size digging spades, compact border spades, a Neverbend Professional Irish Spade and a Neverbend Steel Contractors Grafting Spade. Heads come in carbon steel or stainless steel, and several models have treaded blade tops for better footing when you drive the spade into the ground.

The main differences are blade size, head material and how hard the spade is built to work. Elements and Select suit regular garden use, while the Neverbend Professional and Solid Forged spades are made for tougher, more frequent digging.

Key Features of Spear and Jackson Spades

• Carbon steel heads: The Elements Carbon Steel Digging Spade and Select Carbon Digging Spade use strong, heat treated blades that hold up to compacted soil and regular use.
• Stainless steel heads: Neverbend and Select stainless steel digging and border spades slide through soil with less sticking and resist rust, which makes cleaning easier.
• Treaded blades: Treaded Neverbend models give your boot a wider, more comfortable platform, so you can dig for longer with less foot strain.
• Weatherproofed ash shafts: The Elements Border Spade pairs a carbon steel head with an ash shaft, which gives a traditional feel and good shock absorption.
• Compact border blades: The smaller blade fits between established plants and in raised beds, where a full-size spade would be awkward.
• Solid forged construction: The Solid Forged Digging Spade is built as a single piece for durability under heavy use.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a digging spade and a border spade?

A digging spade has a larger blade for moving more soil quickly. A border spade is smaller and lighter, so it is better for planting and working in confined beds.

Should I choose carbon steel or stainless steel?

Carbon steel is strong and well suited to tough ground. Stainless steel resists rust and lets soil slide off more easily, which is useful in heavy or sticky soil.

Are treaded spades worth having?

Yes, if you dig regularly. The treads give your boot a wider surface to push on, which is more comfortable during long digging sessions.

Which Spear and Jackson spade suits heavy-duty work?

The Neverbend Professional Heavy Duty Spade and Solid Forged Digging Spade are the strongest choices for demanding digging. Shop Spear and Jackson Spades at Tooled-Up.com to compare them.
