BOSCH HS1922 4-1/2 In. x 17 In. Clay Spade SDS-Max Hammer Steel Ideal for Digging Applications in General Gardening, Landscaping

I bought this attachment to be used with the Bauer 11 Amp 1-9/16 In. SDS Max-Type Pro Variable Speed Rotary Hammer from Harbor Freight while digging back a slope in our yard to build a retaining wall. This may be the best accessory I have purchased to be used with a demolition hammer. It powers well through dirt and clay, it does struggle in wet/damp mulch areas but this would probably apply to all clay spades. After cutting 180' linear feet across our lot at a depth of 12-18 inches the bit has very few imperfections. Was able to cut through hidden bricks and tree roots upto 1 - 1.25" in diameter. Larger tree roots did require a reciprocating saw. Given the terrain and what I encountered below ground i was expected the leading edge of the clay spade to be more damaged but Bosch has done a great job with this bit. Would recommend for everyone to have on hand. I've read people having success using a similar setup to quickly dig holes to plant new trees, shrubs and excavate for post holes. I'm a very happy buyer.

Perfect !!

I used this with a Berkstock sp? 1-9/16" SDS-Max demolition hammer to remove a 4-5" diameter magnolia tree, rootball and all. This spade shovel made quick work of the job, freeing the entire rootball in under 5 min. The rootball was to large and heavy for me to pull it out of the ground alone. The spade shovel & demo hammer made the job easy here in the Las Vegas area where our ground is like moon rock. I did sharpen the edge of the spade before going to work and that likely helped with cutting through the roots. At $53, I think priced a bit high ($35 would have been reasonable IMO). And the only improvement I would have welcomed is to make the shank longer by 12". Otherwise, the spade did it's job and showed no noticeable wear after one use.

I used this bit in a power hammer to dig a trench around the inside of my hose footer. All clay and rock digging. It held up fine, and made the job way easier than digging by hand.

I have clay soil with lots of rocks. Trying to dig with a regular shovel is near impossible. When I attached this to my roto-hammer drill, I was able to dig multiple holes for planting fruit trees. I also used it to dig a sump pit for a French drain. It works well in the conditions and it hasn't worn down yet. I've been using it for 6 months and it shows no wear.

I have used this for digging trenches, preparing to install retaining walls etc. This has been a life saver in my clay soil. A wonderful tool in my large cordless Dewalt hammer drill (in hammer mode obviously).

Got it today and it fit perfectly in my bosch hammer drill. I read the reviews prior to buying and was kinda skeptical since some complained about it not working. They were wrong, this spade was awesome today. I dug 7 large holes for trees in hard clay. It typically takes me 30 minutes to dig a decent size hole but today it took less than 10 minutes per hole. You still need a shovel as the spade is only used to break apart the hard clay, but that was expected. Whoever said the item broke is either lying or just crazy. I hit many rocks and I there’s not even a crack or chip. I’m just making this review since I saw so many negative ones and wanted to assure buyers that were on the fence like I was.

I use this to dig a 30 inch trench 15 foot long for underground piping and it was all rock. I never changed the bit because you can use it as a chisel can use it to pry and dig. It’s still like new Well worth the money don’t even consider other brands.
