Quick Spade,
July 20, 2009
By GaryShu
from Schoharie, NY
"I bought the quick spade about a year ago. It works great. One of the first things I used it for was digging a 150 foot ditch 2 1/2 feet deep for drainage pipe. It had to snake thru the trees. It did an excellent job of digging tearing thru the roots. It also does a decent job of chopping thru the ice on a frozen driveway. I have recommended it to several friends"

Real back saver,

"Easy to install, easy to use.
If you aren't sure, watch the video on UTube.
I selected this model to mount on forks on my tractor. I think the combo version, mounted on a bucket, would not be a good idea for a tractor. The tractor hood would block too much vision.
It will take a bit of practice to become proficient. It's the kind of tool that may not be used often but exactly the thing to save your bacon - especially when it's 102 outside and you need to dig a hole that won't wait. Bad back? Poor health? You need this."

"I run my own landscaping business and just purchased this amazing tool this Spring. I was able to dig and transplant a 2.5" caliper Maple tree with ease in an hour. The spade can also be used to transport burlapped plants on site. I wish I had this tool years ago!"

"This is a review of the fork mounted version of the quickspade. I have one on a set of industrial forks attached to my tractor. It is a sturdy and simple piece of equipment that is easy to use. It is very effective at digging trenches and can dig about 4ft deep or more with a width of about 20 inches or so. Digging is not as fast as with a backhoe but if you don't have a BH or don't want to mount it for a small job, this device works very well. I'd guess it digs about 4-5 times as fast as a man with a shovel. You do need to back and manuver the tractor to dump the spoils which is why it is only 4-5 times as fast as a single man with a shovel as he could just flip the dirt aside. I'm not sure I would mount one of these quickspades on light duty clamp on bucket forks as the leverage can get quite high but with a properly supported set of forks it does a fine job. It is useful for trenching, general digging and also as a cheapo tree spade. Well worth the price."
