I have the bamboo spade from Midatlantic Bamboo. It is wonderful! I've had back problems for over 10 years and I wouldn't be able to get anything done without it. It's not just the head design but the slamming handle that makes life easier. If you're young and have a good back....GET ONE NOW and save your back for your later years. If you have a bad back... get one and start getting all the things done you haven't been able to do.
I love my bamboo spade! You can look on utube and search Midatlantic Bamboo and watch the video. There's a lady using it and you can tell how easy it is to use.

Re: Bamboo Spade
I use one of these, kind of like a bamboo spade on steroids. You need an air compressor though so it's less versatile.
