Bully Tools 72530 14 in. Drain Spade with American Ash Long Handle
It’s called a Drain Spade because the design is ideal for digging narrow trenches to lay wire, pipes, or a French drain-but it can do so much more than that. The Drain Spade will become your tool of choice for many digging chores such as deep holes for planting, clearing out ditches, finding leaks, dividing transplants, and is even flat enough for edging. As with our other shovels and spades, the Drain Spade is built to last your lifetime, with a steel blade strong enough to slide through tough soil, the step is solid and wide to prevent foot slippage, the back is closed to avoid soil buildup, and the reinforced head-to-handle connection prevents separation. Constructed from 12-gauge 100% Made In The USA steel, it’s up to 30% more durable against foreign competitors. This shovel comes in a variety of handles, including one made from high-quality fiberglass that’s coated in a polyester veil to prevent splintering and increase strength, or the choice of true American hardwood. It also features a variety of grips including a D-shaped polypropylene grip with a no-slip texture, designed to increase leverage and reduce hand fatigue while wide enough to accommodate work gloves, or a rubber grip to provide maximum comfort and to decrease hand fatigue despite all that digging. The Bully Tools 12-Gauge Drain Spade comes with a limited lifetime warranty that protects against defects in material and workmanship.

- ALL-AMERICAN CONSTRUCTION – like all of our tools, our 12-Gauge 14-inch Drain Spade is constructed using only the toughest American-made parts – from the blade to the handle to the grip
- TRENCHING MADE EASIER – our Drain Spade is 5-inches wide, the perfect size for a trench, and the rounded blade and curved edges allow little soil disruption in the areas that you want to keep intact
- PERFECT FOR TRANSPLANTING – some refer to this tool as a ‘transplanting spade’ because transplanting is a task that this tool accomplishes very well since the blade is smaller in width than a shovel and won’t disrupt the roots of the surrounding foliage
