Spade Fiskars 1067511 ergonomic design grey color

Fiskars spade model 1067511 is a garden digging tool with an ergonomic design in grey color. It is intended for digging, edging and moving soil or compost in home gardens, allotments and light landscaping work. The spade combines a shaped handle and blade geometry aimed at reducing user strain while performing common gardening tasks.

Advantages

The ergonomic handle shape and balanced weight distribution provide better control and reduced fatigue compared with standard straight-handle spades. The blade is shaped for efficient soil penetration and scooping, making it easier to lift and move earth or compost. A durable construction ensures the tool remains stable under normal domestic gardening use.

Suitable for

• Digging planting holes and trenches in garden beds
• Edging lawns and flower borders
• Transferring soil, compost or mulch
• Light landscaping and soil cultivation tasks

Key specifications

• Ergonomic design with shaped handle to reduce strain
• Grey finish for a neutral appearance
• Blade geometry optimized for penetration and scooping
• Balanced weight distribution for improved control
• Suitable for domestic garden and allotment use

How to use

Position the spade blade at the intended digging spot and apply steady downward pressure with the foot on the blade edge if necessary. Use the ergonomic handle to maintain a natural wrist and arm alignment while levering soil out with short, controlled motions. For edging, insert the blade vertically along the border and move it along the line to create a clean edge. When moving soil or compost, fill the blade and transfer in measured loads to avoid overloading and maintain balance.

Usage recommendations

Before and after use, clean soil from the blade and dry to reduce corrosion. Store the spade in a dry place and inspect the handle and blade junction periodically for wear. Use appropriate footwear and gloves for safety, and avoid using the spade on very hard, rocky ground beyond its intended domestic use.
