Enjoy improved comfort during digging projects with an extendable shovel that adjusts to your height. The extendable Ergo D-handle steel shovel features a handle that can be extended or shortened to fit your height, helping to support healthy posture and eliminate soreness caused from stooping. Adjusting the handle length is easy, too - simply turn the orange lock to lengthen or shorten the handle, then turn it again to secure the handle at the right length for your height. The welded steel construction is far more durable than wood and won't flex like fiberglass. A sharpened shovel blade cuts dense soil and thick roots easily and a foot platform helps maximize force to break up hardened soil clods. The D-handle design provides excellent grip when digging and a mid grip and teardrop shaped shaft provide exceptional comfort and control.
