Root Slayer Drain Spaten

The serrated blade chewed through a tangle of wet roots and clay without me having to stomp on it once, which saved my back on a long afternoon of trenching. The angled head let me slice under a buried pipe cleanly, and the edge still looks sharp after a dozen uses.

The serrated edge on this spade made quick work of severing roots that would've dulled my old shovel in seconds. I was surprised how easily it sliced through heavy clay soil to clear a clogged drain line.

Used it to dig out a stubborn maple root that was wrecking my walkway, and the sharp notched edge sliced through like butter. The blade's shape kept it from getting stuck in the trench, which is more than I can say for my old round-point shovel.
