Roughneck ROU68005 Gorilla Sharp Edge Micro Shovel Round 68-005

Some jobs leave no room for a full-length shovel. Whether you are working in a trench, clearing material from a bulk bag, cutting through roots, or keeping a compact digging tool close by in the van or vehicle, the Roughneck ROU68005 Gorilla Sharp Edge Micro Shovel Round 68-005 is built for those situations where control, strength, and portability matter most. It brings the feel of a serious contractor’s shovel into a shorter format that is easier to handle in restricted spaces.

At the centre of the design is a heavy-duty carbon steel round blade with a sharp edge, made to tackle digging and shovelling tasks with more bite than a standard compact shovel. The sharp edge makes it especially useful for slicing into tougher ground, cutting through roots, and opening aggregate bags, while the rounded blade shape still gives you the versatility needed for general digging and shifting loose material. That makes it a strong choice for site work, landscaping, groundwork, vehicle emergency use, and outdoor jobs where a full-size shovel would be awkward or impractical.

Roughneck has reinforced the tool where it matters most. The steel Power Ring socket strengthens the blade-to-handle connection, helping this compact shovel deliver the kind of durability normally expected from much larger tools. The fibreglass handle resists shrinkage, expansion, and rotting, while the full-size double-injected D-grip handle gives a secure and comfortable hold for better control during repeated use.

With an overall length of around 685mm to 690mm, this shovel is easy to store in vans, car boots, workshops, and site boxes, ready for the jobs that demand something shorter, stronger, and easier to manoeuvre. For contractors, landscapers, groundworkers, and outdoor users who need a compact digging tool that still works hard, the Roughneck ROU68005 Gorilla Sharp Edge Micro Shovel Round 68-005 is a practical addition to the kit.
