Specification Brand : IDEALSPATEN BulletPoint1 : MADE IN GERMANY - The Solingen is a heavy duty snow shovel, as tough as they come. The lightweight aluminum head helps reduce the tools overall weight, maximizing the users transport weight. The attached steel blade along the shovel's edge maintains a hard and durable cutting blade against the rough ice and snow. The D Handle helps provide more control and weight lifting abilities for the user. Use caution when digging in extremely hard or frozen ground, as it may damage the tool. BulletPoint2 : PREMIUM GRADE GERMAN ALUMINUM HEAD with ATTACHED STEEL BLADE along edge. - Heat treated and oil hardened - The steel is heated to approximately 2200 degrees Fahrenheit. Our blade designs do promote self sharpening of the edge during use. However, as time goes on, it is a good idea to occasionally touch up the blade to maintain a clean, smooth, and relatively sharp edge with our Dual-Sided Sharpening Files and dual-grit Sharpening Stones BulletPoint3 : HANDLE - FSC CERTIFIED GERMAN ASH - Straight shaft - D handle grip - Individually selected for grain orientation and density - 150 grit smooth sanded - Linseed oil finish. The quality of the handle is also a significant measure of the tool’s integrity. Idealspaten handles are proudly crafted from FSC Certified sustainably sourced Grade A Swiss Ash. Idealspaten promotes environmentally sound, socially beneficial, and economically prosperous management of the world's forests. BulletPoint4 : SPECIFICATIONS - Total Length: 58 ½ in. - Head Width: 14 in. - Total Weight: 5 lb. Store your tool in a cool, dry place. Excessive exposure to moisture and the elements may cause damage over time. Do not store in direct sunlight, or near a stove, fireplace, or other heat source. This can cause significant damage to handles by lowering humidity levels in the wood. After using your tool, always clean it before storing. For the best care, lightly oil it before storing. BulletPoint5 : RUST PROTECTION Carbon steel blade attachment is susceptible to rusting over time. Rust can be prevented by keeping the steel head oiled. If rusting does occur, use steel wool or an abrasive to remove the rust, and then wipe down with our Axe-Guard Head Oil. Axe-Guard is a metal protecting and rust preventative oil, and the residue is safe for contact on leather, wood, or skin.
