Spade (Spear and Jackson) ***

Considering spades Spear and Jackson is famous. Adequate and reliable tooling for a reasonable price. Is there something to improve? Yes, was the reply from Sheffield. They developed a spade wherein the shaft attaches itself to two sides of the iron blade. As a consequence you now can use your foot centrally. The new spades were called the E-series and they look futuristic. Of course, also forks and other tools using this principle are available.
