Little Ripper Planting Spade
Designed for soft or pre-cultivated soils where cultivation is not so important. These spades have their shafts offset to the blades. This allows for greater cultivation of the planting hole with less body movement by the person planting. Designed for commercial planting projects so these are extremely durable, hard wearing spades that offer high productivity. The straight (parallel) shaft spades give better and more accurate penetration, whereas the offset shaft spades are better aligned pushing/pulling on the spade to cultivate/open up the soil due to the fact the blade and shaft are offset to each other. The handle grip is over moulded with a new vulcanized thermoplastic rubber for ultimate grip, comfort and durability. This special over mould substance will not break down with sweat, salt air or U.V and is non slip wet or dry. It also has the lowest rating for muscular activity with less effort needed to grip, less muscle strain and less fatigue for the user. The inside of the spade handle has been made wider for bigger hands with an oval grip for comfort. The spade handle yoke is made from nylon impregnated with rubber to assist with impact shock absorption. Manufactured by Levin Sawmakers N.Z.
