The Lesche All Purpose Shovel is designed for relic hunting, coin and jewelry recovery, and gold prospecting. The 5-inch by 8-inch curved blade and 26-inch overall length provide the ideal balance for digging clean plugs in parks, old homesteads, and historic sites. The heat-treated tapered edge cuts cleanly through rocky Civil War sites and hard-packed farmland alike. Gold prospectors also rely on the AP Shovel for sampling and moving overburden along dry washes and creek banks. Its rust-resistant steel construction ensures it holds up to wet soil conditions.
