The Ultra Lite spade weighs 5 pounds, a balance point that provides enough mass to drive through compacted soil without causing arm fatigue during extended digging sessions. The weight is lighter than the 6.1-pound 13-inch model and the 6.75-pound 15-inch long-handle version, making it easier to maneuver during all-day work. For contractors working full days on site prep or landscaping projects, the 5-pound weight keeps you productive without the shoulder and forearm strain that comes from swinging a heavier tool hundreds of times per shift. The aircraft-quality steel construction and heat treatment deliver durability without unnecessary bulk, so you get a tool that's light enough to reduce fatigue yet strong enough to handle compacted soil, rocks, and roots. You can compare weight and dimensions across D-handle shovels, diggers, & picks to find the right balance for your work.
