Specification Brand : IDEALSPATEN BulletPoint1 : MADE IN GERMANY - The Kieler Spade is a mid size rounded digging spade, made for digging holes and planting. The straight handle is designed for maximizing the pushing force into harder soils. The Kieler's round and pointed cutting edge works well in harder and more compact soils. A spade's primary function is a digging tool, as opposed to a material mover and transport tool. Compared to a shovel, a spade will outperform at digging. BulletPoint2 : THE LACQUERED HANDLE FINISH will protect the wood against the elements and moisture, and from drying out over time. The powder coated finish on the head will protect against rust, and gives this product line a uniform appearance. Stand with both feet firm and plant the weight of your body. Over leveraging your handle is the leading cause of damage. If your spade is lodged in the ground rock it back and forth in line with the blade. Never twist side to side, as this may break the handle. BulletPoint3 : BEAD BLASTED HEAD PREMIUM GRADE GERMAN C50 CARBON STEEL - Heat treated and oil hardened - Attached rounded treads - Welded double spring socket - Sharpened profile blade edge. The steel blank is heated to approx 2200 degrees Fahrenheit. An indentation is pressed into the blank from both sides, while the steel is soft and hot. The steel is rolled in multiple stages, which is strengthening the steel and increasing density. The head is bead blasted to help protect from corrosion during storage. BulletPoint4 : D-HANDLE - FSC CERTIFIED GERMAN ASH - Curved and ergonomic for comfort and efficiency - D handled grip - Individually selected for grain orientation and density - 150 grit smooth sanded - Clear lacquer finish Highest resilience - Safest maneuvering guidance - Strongest power transmission - One solid piece of wood - Most comfortable grip - Facilitates turning/lateral movement - Strongest piercing movements BulletPoint5 : SPECIFICATIONS - Total Length: 45 in. - Head Width: 7 ½ in. - Total Weight: 4 ¼ lbs. Carbon steel is susceptible to rusting over time. Rust can be prevented by keeping the steel head oiled. If rusting does occur, use steel wool or an abrasive to remove the rust, and then wipe down with our Axe-Guard Head Oil. Axe-Guard is a metal protecting and rust preventative oil, and the residue is safe for contact on leather, wood, or skin.
