Overview
Seymour pairs northern hardwood handles bolted into sockets with a forged high-carbon steel frame and double hinges. Enameled blue blades are riveted to a shouldered frame for heavy or gravelly ground.
Forged hinges and riveted blades give it a firmer frame than a basic digger, and the long handles let you reach down. The duty rating is described both ways in the listing, so treat it as medium-duty.
Who it's for
Fence and landscaping jobs in clay or gravel suit the build. Anyone working near power lines, or expecting daily commercial use, should consider fiberglass or a heavier rated tool.
Pros and cons
- Forged steel frame with double hinges
- Blades riveted to shouldered frame
- Hardwood handles with square butts
- Enameled finish on frame and blades
- Duty rating conflicts in the listing
- Wood handles can split over time
- Weight not listed
- Sold in bulk packaging
Performance notes
The hinge design and frame carry the force of the spread and lift, and wide, riveted blades move soil with each pull. Wood handles flex less than fiberglass but need dry storage. Heavy or gravel soil makes the work harder.
