New spade

[monkey 449]

I’ve been using a spade I bought from a army store for the last 20 years it’s starting to bend a bit now so on the look out for a new one , what spade is everyone using?

If it's the one I'm thinking of, it's a general service shovel, get them on eBay, army or new

I use the little roughneck if I'm solo or easy digging and the Tree shovel if its hedges hard ground and roots, it has a bit weight for cutting through roots.
