Frequently Asked Questions
1) I was at my local farm store recently and I noticed that Strainrite offer 2 very similar fencing spade models – the Short/long handle RED fencing spade, and the BLACK short/long handle “Ace Of Spades”. What is the difference between the two?
A1) One key difference between the Ace Of Spades and the Red Fencing spades is the spade mouth. The Red Fencing Spade has a square mouth, whilst the Ace of spades has a slightly rounded spade mouth.
A2) The Red Fencing Spade features a replaceable ergonomic handle grip – the ergonomic grip assists in absorbing shock while digging, making it easy on the operator’s hands. The Ace of spades features a solid, rounded grip handle. Due to customer feedback, we have learned that there is a preference for both solid grips and ergonomic grips within the industry.
A3) The Ace of Spades is slightly heavier than the Red Fencing spade. You can check the weight specifications for the spades by clicking on the “part.no” descriptor tabs under each product.
