All the great digging features of the original Root Slayer, but with an extended shaft for taller users and experts who prefer longer, straight-handled gardening tools. The heavy-duty blade features two rows of ripsaw teeth and an inverted V-shaped cutting tip to help you rip through matted roots and hard-packed soil. The unbreakable shaft has a nonlatex, nonslip thermoplastic grip to provide maximum leverage, power and user comfort.
