  • Niwaki golden spade - they're great and much lighter than a wooden one.

  • Spade or shovel?
    Definitely not the same thing! To quote Pratchett:
    "...Never use spades, Farmers use spades. But I call a shovel a shovel."

    The golden spade is very nice for planting small things and general light work- my dads got one and it’s undoubtedly very cool.
    We’ve got a Spear & Jackson ‘ladies’ spade which is much cheaper and stainless.

    For shovel we’ve just got a 1-piece Bulldog job. It’ll last a lifetime on our allotment but reckon I could kill it fairly swiftly if I was still on sites working.
