Motley's smooth stealth-shape bent blade enters fast, cuts a clean-walled hole, and releases the dirt instead of caking it, and the same quick-release clamp as its Forest sibling sets this spade anywhere from 66 cm \/ 26 in to 100 cm \/ 39.4 in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Motley Field Shovel (Field Fox) is an adjustable-length metal detecting spade of 2 mm (0.08 in) high grade heat treated steel, sandblasted and powder coated. Length adjusts 66 to 100 cm (26 to 39.4 in) with a quick-release clamp. Smooth V-point stealth-shape bent blade, 18 cm (7.1 in) wide by 20 cm (7.9 in) high. Weight 1,930 g (4.25 lb). D-shape handle. Made in Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy the Field blade and not the Forest blade\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMotley builds distinct blades for distinct dirt, a choice most dealer listings never explain. The Field blade is the smooth one: a stealth-shaped, forward-bent V-point that Motley designed for harvest cropfields and pasture, where there is nothing to saw and everything to slice. Each cut takes less energy, the hole walls stay clean for your pinpointer, and the bent profile pops the plug free.
