An IDEAL spade stands for the highest quality and durability. Therefore, this double-spring spade is the first choice for professionals and ambitious hobby gardeners. A special quality feature of the IDEAL spade is its high load capacity, as the blade and double spring (handle attachment) are made from a single piece of special steel. This means there are no weld seams on the underside of the blade, which can crack under heavy use, as is the case with conventionally manufactured spades. Another advantage is the self-sharpening edge. The blade is tapered during the rolling process, making it thicker at the top than at the cutting edge – as a result, the spade sharpens itself automatically during use.

The shape of the blade is crucial for its intended use and depends on the soil conditions. The IDEAL spade, in the classic gardener's shape, is an all-rounder and is suitable for work in moderately firm and slightly stony soils. This spade is perfect for digging planting holes, separating beds, or loosening and moving soil. The slightly rounded blade shape with the self-sharpening edge allows for easy penetration into the ground – provided it is not too stony.
