Does any one know of a thoroughly
reliable stainless steel spade?
Perhaps I'm missing something: Is it that important that the spade be
stainless steel? I believe stainless is more difficult to weld, which may
be the problem.
I've had a "regular" steel one for years, indifferently maintained, and
rust isn't a problem.
The advantage of stainless steel tools is that less earth/mud/clay
sticks to the sleek surface and it slips through earth/turf more easily.
Useful if you're gardening on heavy soil.
Janet.
