The Spear & Jackson Kew Gardens Soil Scoop is ideal for home gardeners and horticultural enthusiasts who prioritize durability and ease of use when transplanting or moving soil. Its primary benefit is the mirror-polished stainless steel head that glides effortlessly through dirt while resisting rust; however, users should note that the handle is constructed from ash wood, which requires proper care to prevent long-term environmental degradation.

The total dimensions are 4.5 cm in width, 9 cm in depth, and 33.5 cm in length.
Yes, it is crafted from high-quality, FSC certified ash wood.
The mirror-polished finish is highly rust-resistant, though it should still be cleaned and dried after use.
While the handle is weather-proofed, it is recommended to store it in a dry place using the leather strap to extend its lifespan.
The extended tang improves the leverage of the tool, allowing you to move soil with less physical effort.
Ensure the surface is clean; if necessary, lightly oil the head with a silicone-based lubricant to reduce friction.
Lightly sand the handle with fine-grit sandpaper and apply a coat of boiled linseed oil.
No assembly is required for this product; it is ready to use straight out of the packaging. To ensure the longevity of the tool, clean the stainless steel head with a damp cloth after every use to remove acidity from soil moisture. For the ash wood handle, store the tool in a dry, covered area to prevent rot or splintering. If the wood begins to look dry, apply a light coat of linseed oil occasionally to maintain its weather-proof status. Avoid using the tool for prying heavy stones, as the focus is on soil management rather than heavy construction.
