I didn't expect it to actually dig. I just want to scoop up loose dirt and pass it over the pinpointer, But I'm impressed with the strength of it. And for less than $3 shipped 2nd day FedEX, it's quite a bargain. If it can also dig--That will be a bonus. We'll see, if the good weather lasts 'til I have time to test it.
I think it will also come in handy when the grandchildren want to help me dig. Much safer for them to use.
