32" Mini Root Assassin Garden Shovel/Saw - The Original & Best Award Winning Combo Gardening Spade Tool, Yard, Root, Stump, Tree Removal, Landscaping, Trimming Specialized Digging (32" Shovel/Saw)

Excellent piece of equipment!! The digability of this tool is astronomical!!! It slices through roots like a saw and out comes your problem child with ease. Grip of terminator shovel is 5 stars. Design and quality is also a 5 star reward. Because of ruggedness conditions it went through, durability of mr. root terminator passed with flying colors. 5 stars! In my stand point, value for the money for this thing's capabilities is outstanding.

The shovel works well for uprooting small stumps and shrubbery. The serrated edge can hack through most smaller roots, speeding up the process. You might still need a clipper or saw on the roots that are over 1/2” or so. Also the shovel is not made of adamantium. Don’t use it as a pry bar, it is a small shovel and can deform if abused. Use it for digging around the roots.

This is what you need in the yard! Well made and cuts root too! Very sturdy.

This is my go-to shovel. It has sharp jagged edges to cut through the hard ground. I'm 74 and it is easy to handle and light weight. I'm also short but it isn't too big for me. I use it for everything from digging post holes to planting rose bushes. I'm in the mountains of Colorado and also have a lot of moles in my yard. It works great to dig into their tunnels. Also good for breaking up roots from oak trees. It's a work horse!

Some plant removal requires more than a regular shovel. This shovel works well on fibrous, tuberous rooted plants. For us, it helped in the removal of foxtail ferns. The only suggestion I can think of to improve the tool would be if the ledge you step/push on to push it into the plant's root system was a little bit larger (I have average size feet). It was a bit pricey, but we have enough use for it so for us it was worth it. The only reason I'm giving it a 4 star instead of a 5 star is due to the foot ledge and the price. We like this shovel.

This is the best gardening tool I own. It does what it says it does and more. I have trouble with bending over digging for a long time and this has been a life saver for my back. If you're on the fence about purchasing this, I have to tell you it's the best tool for gardening. Just buy it. I'm so happy with it.

I'm 5'6" and the handle on this product hits me right at my waste which is perfect for getting power into the dirt and roots. *We have had a lot of rain, so soil is soft* But the teeth on each side along with the head was impressive When I first broke dirt with this I wasn't expecting the response. It TORE right through the dirt and demolished smaller roots around the root I was going after. The bigger root was over 1" thick and is an actual vine that are a bit harder to get a bite on. I was able to easily get it pulled out in a matter of minutes. I'm really impressed at the way this thing just tore through the dirt, rock and made it easy to lift the entirely of the root/vine in one go. I was then able to just lob off what was pulled up with some pruners. Highly recommend this line. They have SEVERAL different sizes and types to choose from, so make sure to check them out.

Excellent design and great workmanship. Makes digging so much easier than with a standard shovel, especially in tight places.

Ideal para quien tenga jardín. Yo la uso para limpiar las raíces de laurel en unos al peques, y es genial. Antes de tener la pala me costaba muchísimo más la limpieza. Un descubrimiento.

OK, let's try it out. Dense hedge of black bamboo. I want to take a piece out to plant in my son's garden. (I did try this years ago and gave it up as impossible; the roots were just too dense and I couldn't separate a clump - I couldn't get under the roots without removing decking.) Pushed the shovel in to make a circle the size of the pot I was going to use - lovely crunchy sound as the shovel cut through the roots like butter. Tried levering the clump with the shovel but nothing happened (seeing the number of bent shovels in other reviews I'm glad I didn't exert more pressure). Pushed a fork in the side of the clump, pushed down, bit of effort needed, but out it popped and went straight into the waiting flower pot. Roots were about 40 cm deep and I would suggest making sure they are all cut before trying to remove. So that was my first try and it worked like a charm. I love herbaceous plants and have always had them in my garden. After a few years they form dense clumps which I have had to dig up and split using two forks - very heavy work if the clumps are mature, weighing 20kg or more. I haven't used it on herbaceous plants yet but after my success with the bamboo, I think it will be a piece of cake to remove the tired old centre of these plants or dig out manageable clumps to replant. We have just been removing tired old shrubs and great clumps of herbaceous plants from the garden in my son's new home, so, as I said, I wish I had found this tool years ago; things would have been much easier. I am very pleased with this root assassin (love the name!) and look forward to it making maintaining my garden easier in the future.

Extremely sharp, handy shovel to have in your garden tool shed.

Comoda per scavare. Attenzione al carico di rottura . Non è come la vanga del nonno! Mi capita che quando pianto in profondità la pala e faccio leva per estrarre la zolla, se la terra è compatta, la lama della pala si fletta troppo rischiando la rottura. Bisogna affondare la pala a mezza altezza e ripetere lo scavo . Comunque sono contento . La vanga del nonno era più pesante per niente ergonomica ma molto dura

Diese Schaufel hat mir sehr bei der Entfernung von verwurzelten Sträuchern geholfen. Nur zu empfehlen.
