Buying an Azada

Does anyone know where I can buy an Azada and handle from?
Prefer to buy it tomorrow rather than order online and wait, so it needs to be in Essex.

i fancy a long handled (american) spade to ease the pain on my back. a good idea?

I made my hoe handle from a length of dead wood, whittled smooth with my knife and sanded. Its nice and solid and thicker than any handles I could buy (and cheaper).

I think my hoe is an azada - my mother sent it over from Oz - we just call them hoes there... Definitely a handy tool. I would love a lathe though - such handy tools (and much more precise than a pocket knife) - I keep thinking of making one of those pedal-operated ones, but there is always something more important...

cheers,

Derek

I got a Chillington hoe, which looks like an azada, from the Tool Shop Direct off the internet for £10 inc vat and delivery and handle  

I get on well with it as sit cuts easily through clods or you can smash them up with the stout bit where the handle meets the blade.  the handle is not very long though. OK for me cos I'm a short bum  

They are now selling for £10.29.
