MEGA double-sided pickaxe with wooden handle 2 kg model 12330

Double-sided pickaxe MEGA model 12330 with a wooden handle and a 2 kg head is a manual digging and prying tool intended for breaking compacted soil, chipping small rocks and loosening hard ground. The tool combines a balanced dual-ended forged steel head with a traditional wooden shaft that provides a comfortable grip and natural shock absorption during repeated strikes. Its design suits outdoor tasks where targeted impact and leverage are required.

Advantages

The double-sided steel head offers two working profiles for both chopping and prying, enabling efficient transitions between breaking and levering tasks. A 2 kg head mass delivers substantial impact energy while remaining manageable for single-person use. The wooden handle reduces vibration transmission to the hands compared with rigid synthetic shafts and provides a secure tactile grip. The overall geometry of the head and handle promotes stable swings and controlled strikes for improved precision when working in confined or uneven terrain.

Suitable for

• Breaking compacted garden soil and clay
• Chipping small stones and rocky patches
• Preparing ground for landscaping and planting
• Manual excavation and trenching in construction or repair work
• Clearing roots and hard-packed debris

Key specifications

• Head weight: 2 kg
• Head material: forged steel
• Head type: double-sided (two working profiles)
• Handle material: wood
• Tool type: manual pickaxe for digging and prying

How to use

Grip the wooden handle with both hands spaced comfortably apart and position the head over the target area. Use controlled, swinging strikes to break compacted soil or to chip small stones, alternating between the two head profiles as needed for chopping or levering actions. When levering or prying, place the narrow profile under the material and apply steady downward force on the handle for leverage. Keep a firm stance and strike at an angle that lets the head bite into the surface without glancing. Inspect the handle and head connection before each use to ensure secure fit and safe operation.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves, safety glasses and sturdy footwear when using the pickaxe. Store the tool in a dry place and periodically check the wooden handle for cracks or looseness; replace the handle if its integrity is compromised. Keep the steel head clean and lightly oiled after use to reduce corrosion.
