Bully Tools 72535 Drain Spade 14in 12ga American Ash D-Grip

SKU CH-8WPK-PDT7M

A 14-inch, 12-gauge drain spade with a closed-back blade, 30-inch American ash D-grip handle and 46-inch overall length

  • Closed-back blade stops debris build-up during digging
  • 12-gauge steel blade resists bending in tough soil
  • American Ash D-grip handle absorbs shock for comfort
  • 30-inch handle length gives better leverage control
  • 46-inch total tool length suits deep trenching tasks

Commercial-Grade Drain Spade

The Bully Tools 72535 is a commercial-grade drain spade built for landscapers and property owners who dig narrow trenches in heavy soil. Its 12-gauge steel blade and closed-back design resist bending and stop mud from packing inside the socket.

Closed-Back Blade and Extended Ferrule

The closed back eliminates debris build-up that slows cleaning between digs. An extended-length ferrule locks the 30-inch American Ash handle to the blade, reducing wobble when you pry rocky subsoil. The D-grip lets you push with both hands for better leverage.

14-Inch Blade Depth and 46-Inch Reach

The 5.24 by 14-inch blade cuts a clean, narrow channel for drainage pipe or irrigation line. At 46 inches overall, the tool lets a standing adult work without excessive bending. It is not suited for moving loose mulch or wide, shallow excavation.

Questions about this item

Will the 12-gauge blade or the American ash handle need replacing first with heavy digging?

The 12-gauge steel blade resists bending in tough soil, while the American ash handle may eventually require replacement if subjected to severe impact or prolonged moisture exposure.

What stops me from digging deeper than the 14-inch blade length in one stroke?

The 5.24-inch blade width and 14-inch depth define each bite; deeper holes require multiple strokes or a longer tool.

Does the D-grip or the 30-inch handle get hot or slippery during all-day use?

The wood handle stays cool and absorbs vibration, while the D-grip provides secure leverage without heating up in direct sun.
