The Faithfull Countryman Turfing Iron is a specialist tool and is designed to facilitate the lifting of turf. A flat heart shaped blade is positioned at an angle to the long handle, so that it can be pushed along the ground under each cut turf. By using a back and forth motion, the flat blade will cut through the soil and roots to produce a smooth surface that makes it much easier to reuse the turf elsewhere. Made from heat-treated (hardened) carbon steel to provide both strength and durability. Powder-coated finish provides improved resistance to rust, scratches, humidity and alkaloids in the soil. Fitted with an ergonomically designed, European Ash, T-grip handle, supplied from FSC sustainable resources and lacquered for protection against the weather. The handle has been designed to reduce fatigue and back strain and is an indispensable aid when lifting turf to be moved and re-laid. The Countryman Range has been designed for the gardener who requires a tool they can rely on to provide years of dependable service. Overall Length: 1330mmBlade Width: 215mm

Shaft split within 30 minutes of use Rather than send it back, I screwed the shaft together and reinforced with duct tape. It got the job done. Metal part does exactly what it should - wooden part is not fit for purpose.

I haven't had chance to use my new turf digger but it looks like it will do the job very well, it arrived promptly, well packaged.

The trouble was it did NOT arrive on the day promised and we had planned the job and completed it before the turf cutter arrived
