{"product_id":"hardys-newcastle-post-hole-spade-1150mm","title":"Hardys Newcastle Post Hole Spade 1150mm","description":"\u003cp\u003eIf you regularly dig fence post holes, lay drainage pipes, or run cables through the ground, a standard spade simply isn't built for the job. The Hardys Newcastle-style grafting spade features a long, narrow tapered blade that cuts cleanly into the earth and fits where wider heads won't, making it far easier to create deep, precise holes without disturbing the surrounding soil. The hardened leading edge handles compacted ground, roots, and stony soil with noticeably less effort than a conventional digging spade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fibreglass shaft is a practical choice for a tool that spends a lot of time outdoors and under pressure. It resists moisture and corrosion, won't rot or splinter like wood, and holds up well under repeated heavy use. The stainless steel socket keeps the head firmly connected to the shaft, reducing flex at the joint where cheaper tools tend to fail first. Forward-facing foot treads let you drive the blade down with your full bodyweight, which makes a real difference when you're working through tough clay or root-heavy ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 1150mm overall, this spade gives you enough length to dig to a useful depth without constantly crouching, and the ergonomic D-grip keeps your hand comfortable during longer sessions. It's a well-thought-out tool for anyone doing regular groundwork, whether that's fencing, drainage, or utilities installation.
