Definition
A small spade designed to be used with one hand, typically for digging, gardening, or excavation tasks.
Etymology
Compound of 'hand' (from Old English) and 'spade' (from Dutch 'spade'). The term emerged as tool-makers created smaller versions of full-sized spades for precision work.
Kelly Says
A handspade is the gardener's best friend—it's exactly the right size for planting flowers or weeding, which is why archaeologists also use them to carefully uncover artifacts without damaging them.
