Has anyone come across any good deals on spades?
I mindlessly left mine leaning against a gate on my last outing so need to buy a new one. Doh.
I had the BlackAda extended Maximus last time…. It was a great spade but needed regular sharpening but would consider others.
Always carefully proof-read what you've typed to see if you've any words out.

I doubt there’ll be discounts by spade manufacturers as most are pretty small. Your best bet will be a general discount by an MD shop which (historically) tend to be 15-20% across pretty much everything.

In case anyone is looking to get an XP detector it looks like they’ll be doing deals from tomorrow (Monday 20th)

Maybe one without a serrated edge? :Thinking:

I can recommend the Radius pro-lite transplanter spade with a tempered stainless steel blade.
It has 5 years warranty and I haven’t been able to break it yet. :thumbsup:

I've been using them too but only the stainless steel one is currently available in the UK, and it is considerably heavier. If you don't need a big spade radius do a ladies spade in tempered steel for about 25 quid but I've never actually used one. :thumbsup:

PS If you do find tempered steel transplanter spades in the UK please do let me know.

LP doing 10% off and free Profind 40, not sure if all the others are doing it, should imagine so normally Minelab approved the deals.
