Sirius 1,391 Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 I am after a small mattock/pick axe. The kind you can slide the head on and off. Anyone use one or recommend a decent supplier. Regards Sirius Quote Link to post
hideandshoot 13 Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 You can get them from the old style agricultural suppliers, or alternatively from your computor http://www.lbsgardenwarehouse.co.uk/product.asp?src=BGWebsite&pf_id=FAGR77&name=mattock&sfile=1&jump=0 The handle and shaft come as two items. You're better off with a transplanting planting spade if you're wanting it to dig for ferrets - you don't want chop your ferret in two! http://www.lbsgardenwarehouse.co.uk/product.asp?src=BGWebsite&pf_id=BDSP03&name=spade&sfile=1&jump=4 Quote Link to post
