5Lightweight & Sturdy - Good for Hiking/Camping as Well as Gardening  Sep 01, 2010 By alost
Although this is designed as transplanter, I purchased this spade to use as a lightweight digging tool when hiking in case a one of the hiking party needs to dig a hole for use as a bathroom/latrine or to dig a shallow fire pit when camping. The spade is sufficiently lightweight that it adds no appreciable weight to my pack but is strong enough that it works to dig in all but the hardest soil where any spade, composite or metal, would be of limited worth and where one would have to use a shovel in any event. The material is described as a nylon/fiberglass composite rather than plastic. The "nyglass" material is, in fact, stronger than a spade of this size in plastic would be - it is quite sturdy and inflexible. The blade is a little thicker than a metal counterpart, however, so it requires that more energy be expended to dig in compacted soil.

5Almost weightless. Very strong. No real edge.  Jun 21, 2011 By Allen Gabriele "ajgabriele"
I got this and it's bigger brother for taking specimens in the wild. It weighs 83 grams (2.9oz). It is stronger and more rigid than most of the metal hand spades I own. It has rounded edges though so it's not for cutting through fibrous roots, but it might hold an edge well enough if sharpened, which I might try. So far no problem in Florida soils (mostly sand). Packing or biking it's perfect for me.

Update: I saw it for 99 cents at HM DPT.


4Nice little tool  May 22, 2012 By D&M Jake
It seemed like all my gardening tools decided to fall apart this spring, so I picked this tool up along with a Fiskars 3 piece gardening tool set. The tool set worked great on my clay soil in the garden, but seemed to be overkill on my little flower bed in the front yard. This 'transplanter' shovel worked great to dig out any stray weeds and transplant those little seedlings into their new home. The 48 little plants went in so quick and easy that I actually had time to sit back and admire my work! I really like this new little tool!!!


5Shovel works great  May 17, 2012 By ruralmom
I used this shovel to move some flowers around in my garden and I needed to make some of my holes bigger. I was pleasantly suprised by this transplanter shovel. It really works well diving down into hard soil. Great, easy, and lightweight shovel to have for gardening uses.


1A Toy  Apr 21, 2012 By C. Peace "GrillaGardnr"
I used this shovel for two days. About 2 1/2" of the tip broke off one the first rock I encountered. I'm a bit surprised everybody else says "strong." But thanks to Amazon's great return policy, I'm not out any money and am very grateful for that. Maybe mine was defective. I still can't recommend it.
