  • The Root Slayer Shovel XL is an extended length version of the Root Slayer providing extra leverage with a longer, conventionally shaped handle.  It’s great for taller gardeners and great for people who prefer a long straight handle to our patented O-handle grip. The Root Slayer can eliminate the need for other tools, such as hatchets, pry-bars, and saws, when simply digging around the home. If you’ve ever hit roots while trying to plant a perennial, or been stymied by roots when trying to dig up a shrub, or tried to divide hostas with a spade only to have them slide away from your shovel, you’ll know what we’re talking about. You can use the Root Slayer as your go-to shovel. You can also use it to replace your nursery spade. Think of it as a shovel, root hatchet, and root saw all in one tool.  Non-latex grip on pultruded fiberglass shaft.  Lifetime Guarantee.

  • Blade Length = 13", Blade Width 10.5" at top of step, Total Length = 57.5", Weight: 5 lbs. 3 oz., Material: Tempered Mid-Carbon Steel blade, reinforced pultruded fiberglass shaft, and thermoplastic elastomer grip.
  • US Patents Pending.

Joseph ★★★★★

The longer handle really saves my back on deep planting jobs—no more hunching over like with my old stubby shovel. The blade cuts through packed soil cleanly, and the extra leverage pops out roots without me having to stomp on it repeatedly.

Michael T. ★★★★★

I'm 6'4" and the extra-long handle on this shovel is a lifesaver — I can finally dig without rounding my back. The blade cuts through roots like butter, making transplanting shrubs way less of a chore.

William ★★★★★

Finally, a shovel that doesn't make me bend over awkwardly—the longer handle is a lifesaver for digging deep holes. I can really feel the extra leverage when I hit a thick root, and it cuts through cleanly.
