Designed for contractors and hardcore gardeners, the Professional's Choice Tools Series offers heavy duty construction that can handle any job on the site or at home. The Round-Point D-Grip Shovel features a 28 in. long fiberglass handle and is incredibly tough. Unlike traditional wooden handles, the thick, fiberglass construction makes the handle weather-proof. It won't splinter, chip, crack, or split over time. And, unlike metal handles, it won't rust or warp from humidity or damp working conditions. The fiberglass gives an easy grip that makes your projects easier, and the extra cushion grip along the handle adds more control. A black powder-coated and lacquered blade made of heavy duty 14 ga. steel is designed for the toughest jobs. From heavy construction work to big garden projects, this shovel can tackle practically any project. The round shape is great for breaking up earth while the blade edge gives you extra power for driving into resistant materials. The round shovel blade measures 10.5 x13 in. giving you a wide base for lifting dirt, gravel, sand, and more, without being bulky or difficult to lift. It also features step points for applying weight and driving the spade head deep into soil with ease. And the chrome finish adds both durability and quality to each and every tool head. Instead of a ferruled end, this shortened shovel uses a convenient D grip that gives the user the optimal grip when getting in at tough spots with precise digs. The Professional's Choice tools are lightweight AND sturdy enough for the toughest jobs and most demanding gardeners.
