  • After observing an irrigation crew working on a problem sprinkler head on a golf course, it seemed like a no-brainer to extend the Root Slayer technology to a Drain Spade. The Root Slayer Drain Spade is extra long and narrow and ready to rip right through dense mats of roots. The inverted V cutting tip and arrays of ripsaw cutting teeth on both edges make quick work of obstructions. Whether digging a trench, uprooting a shrub, or cleaning out an existing drainage ditch, you'll really appreciate the strength and sharpness of this ergonomic tool. Lifetime guarantee.

  • Blade Length = 16.5", Blade Width 8.5" at top of step, Total Length = 45.75", Weight: 5 lbs. 6 oz., Material: Tempered Mid-Carbon Steel blade, thermoplastic elastomer over-molded onto polypropylene
  • US Patents 7,836,557, 8,006,351, D569,697.  Other Patents Pending.

Customer Reviews (4.2 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Avery ★★★★★

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.

Amelia ★★★★★

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.

Jacob A. ★★★★★

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.
