Abstract

See full text

A digging tool has a pair of handles, each with a hand-grasping portion that provides comfortable manipulation, and each with a lower handle member that couples into a shovel assembly. Each one of the pair of shovel assemblies has a shovel blade and is provided with a suitable foot ledge. Each shovel assembly is formed with the shovel blade on one end, and on a second end distal to the blade a channel encompasses and reinforces a handle contained therein. A pair of plate and fastener combinations cooperate with at least one longitudinally extensive slot in each channel, to allow each shovel assembly to independently reciprocate longitudinally parallel or co-axially with respect to the associated handle. A hinge is provided between and couples each of the two handles together pivotally, preferably relatively more closely to the blade than the hand-grasping portion to provide good mechanical advantage.
