Garden Product Review chose the Root Assassin as the winner of their Golden Shovels Award. Root Assassin shovels are excellent for clearing out overgrown areas of gardens, forests, or brush. The engineered bone structure adds amazing strength. The curved sharpened tip cuts roots easily. The unique shape of the serrated teeth, located on both sides of the shovel, withstands the toughest jobs. When the teeth wear down, you can easily sharpen them with a wheel or grinder. The secret of these shovels is that the teeth cut roots when pushing into and pulling out of the ground. Root Assassin uses solid industrial grade steel when manufacturing these shovels and finish them by applying a sleek silver-colored powder coat. They design the steel shaft with ergonomics in mind and top it with a durable solid poly / rubber-coated bright red handle for comfort and ease of locating amid the grounds. These shovels are light enough to be taken along for a long day yet strong and dense enough to provide the leverage needed to get the job done! They are an excellent addition to your garden tools. They are the king among gardening tools and easily beat all metal shovels. The shovel / saw combo makes it totally unique. This is the original root shovel - often imitated, but never duplicated! See below for size options. Do NOT use as a lever - max weight is 250 pounds.
