I bought it originally for metal detecting. I have had the Lesche hand digging tool for years and it is AMAZING. I expected this shovel to be a larger version of the hand tool. However, despite this shovel's ability to easily penetrate the soil, the curvature of the blade is really too extreme to dig a nice plug unless the plug is the same diameter as the curve of the blade, which is really too small for metal detecting. If attempting to dig a plug with a larger diameter than the blade, it makes a real mess of the ground. This is fine if metal detecting in the woods or on land where preserving the aesthetics of the site is not an issue, but I would not use this tool to dig on somebody's nice lawn or a in a public place. One other gripe is that the gray paint on the handle comes off very easily. Upon receiving the shovel, some of it had already rubbed off, and continued to do so within the first hour or two of use. Again though, it is a tool that functions as it should. Other than that, I love it and I think it is a beautiful shovel.I have ordered the Lesche Sampson Mini shovel to try out as it seems to be better suited for digging clean holes and will be more low-profile when digging in public places.(If you are new to detecting and don't have any digging tools at all besides a normal trowel, I would recommend the Lesche HAND digging tool (with the serrations on the left side) to get you started). ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Length and sturdiness *by K***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2021* Super shovel, great blade length. 40" keeps me from bending over to set the shovel. Built on rubber covered step is great help. I lightly sanded the handle and put two coats of flourescent Pink paint on it for better visual in the field when I lay it down in the grass or field. Named it Dani, after my 3 year old grand daughter, her favorite color PINK. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ good shovel with a bit of sharpening *by M***R on Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2017* i like the shovel, although it needed the tip straitened out and needed some sharpening. i used a 3 inch abrasive disc for sharpening. once that was done it really goes through large roots easily. the shovel is actually a nice width and works in really rocky soil, as it is easier to maneuver around rocks with a narrow shovel. it is easy to straiten the cutting edge with 2 hammers and a file. the shovel is sturdy and think it will last a lifetime. the shipping was good and arrived as expected. i would recommend this shovel. i think the 40 inch version is a nice length. this is my third shovel from this manufacturer. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/28884495-ground-shark-40-shovel](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/28884495-ground-shark-40-shovel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
