Radius Garden Root Slayer 2.0 XL Long Handle

Dig where the roots are without switching to a saw or hatchet. The Radius Garden Root Slayer 2.0 XL Long Handle puts a serrated steel blade with an inverted-V tip on a long, straight fiberglass shaft with bright red grips, so every push of the boot both digs and cuts. The extended length gives taller gardeners a comfortable stance and everyone extra leverage when a root will not give. Use it to open a planting hole under an old maple, trench for a drip line through a shrub border or divide a woody perennial that has outgrown its spot.Key Features Inverted-V serrated blade: The V-shaped tip drives in like a wedge and the serrated edges saw through roots as the blade goes down, so you cut and dig in one motion. Three tools in one: Radius designed the Root Slayer to replace a shovel, a root hatchet and a root saw, which means fewer trips back to the shed. Extended long handle: The straight, long shaft of the XL 2.0 suits taller users and adds leverage for prying out stubborn roots and stumps. Built for a lifetime: Durable construction backed by the Radius lifetime guarantee on Root Slayer tools. About Radius Garden: Radius Garden designs ergonomic garden tools, and the Root Slayer line is its family of root-cutting shovels and diggers. How to Use ItSet the V tip on the soil, grip the shaft with both hands and step down hard; the serrations bite as the blade sinks. When you hit a root, rock the blade side to side so the teeth saw through it rather than forcing it straight down. Lever back on the long handle to lift the soil and cut roots free. For trenching, take overlapping slices along your line and pull each one out. For dividing perennials, drive the blade straight through the crown and lift each half. Rinse the blade and dry it after use, and store it hung up so the edge stays sharp.Specifications Type: long-handle root-cutting shovel Blade: serrated steel with inverted-V tip Shaft: straight fiberglass with red grips Functions: digs, cuts and trenches through roots Model: RS225-001 Warranty: Radius lifetime guarantee Stop by Garoppo’s Stone & Garden Center and Feed & Pet Supply to see it in person and pick one up, or schedule local delivery within our service area.
