  • I don't mind paying for a good quality spade , I have a full size bulldog spade that I have had 20 + years but it gets a bit awkward in the borders so was looking for something with a smaller head image

    As I'm a lady image I do all my digging with a border spade - I have a wooden handled Joseph Bentley stainless steel one and I'm very pleased with it image

    I bought it via Amazon
