From Eric at Gravedigger Tools:
Each digging tool was designed by me and then tweaked to perfection with extensive field testing by Reputable diggers throughout the U.S . The Shovel heads are sent out to be laser cut, CNC machined sharpened and then formed. I then fabricate and weld the rest myself. Therefore I have my hands on every single shovel that is made. Each weldment is then stress relieved and hardened at 50 rockwell. I also added the extra process of powder coating to ensure all my digging friends their shovel and color will last.
Grave Digger Tools is family owned and operated that all started back in 2014 from a shovel that broke when I was detecting in my back yard. I know it sounds cliche but its true. As a welder/fabricator of Industrial Machinery by Trade, I took it upon myself to make one not knowing that by posting a picture of it would spark so much attention in the digging community. After my first year of hand making these tools I had revised everything not only to look cool and stand out but to be as hard and strong as possible. Grave Digger Tools is a family owned and operated business and I believe in communication and customer support not only on a business but personal level as well.
