The King of Spades Cutter Mattock uses heat-treated steel across the blade and head, which increases hardness and impact resistance beyond standard hardware-store mattocks. Hardware-store tools typically use mild steel that dulls or chips when striking buried rock or hard caliche layers. The heat treatment on the King of Spades allows the cutting edge to hold up through seasons of claim work in rocky or compacted soil. The 48.75-inch handle is also longer than most consumer mattocks, giving you better reach for deep test pits and trench walls.
