Krumpholz Shovel Long - 130cm Ash Handle - Hand-Forged Hybrid Tool for Deep Digging & Trenching
Digging deep holes, clearing long trenches, or moving heavy material requires both the cutting power of a spade and the lifting capacity of a shovel, all while using a handle long enough to protect your back. The Krumpholz Long Shovel is the perfect hybrid solution, hand-forged by a European family blacksmith with over 220 years of experience. Forged with a uniquely concave blade that is more stable than a flat spade, and fitted with a robust 130cm Ash Wood knob handle, this tool gives you maximum leverage to dig deep, clean trenches and holes with minimal strain.
Best For The committed home gardener or enthusiast who appreciates master-forged tools and requires a rigid, extra-long hybrid shovel for comfortable deep digging, clearing trenches, and powerful soil work.
Key Features
-
Master Hand-Forged Quality: Crafted by Krumpholz, a traditional European blacksmithing company since 1799, this tool is forged from premium steel for maximum toughness, balance, and guaranteed lifelong durability.
-
Extreme 130cm Reach: The robust handle provides superior leverage and reach, allowing you to efficiently dig deep holes and clear the far edges of trenches and wide garden beds while maintaining a comfortable, upright standing posture.
-
Spade/Shovel Hybrid Blade: Combines the cutting edge for clean ground penetration (spade) with the concave shape for lifting and scooping capacity (shovel), making it highly efficient for clearing trenches and large holes.
-
Concave Blade for Stability: The specialized concave shape ensures the blade is much more stable and rigid than a flat spade, resisting bending and twisting when prying or lifting heavy, compacted loads.
-
Knob Handle Design: The handle is finished with a comfortable knob end which provides a secure, single-handed grip and maximum control when lifting and dumping material.
