The 5-Pound Planter is part of V&B"s Groundbreaker line of industry-leading landscaping tools. The planter is designed for years of tough work--this versatile tool has a 3-1/2-inch-wide mattock blade with side panels and a 7-inch-long pick. The blade and pick are crafted of ductile iron that provides for design flexibility without sacrificing strength.

The planter"s 36-inch curved handle is made from the finest quality flame-treated, straight-grain American hickory for strength and durability. V&B Groundbreaker tools are made with a good, practical design and rock solid strength, so you can count on them to come through--even on the toughest jobs.
