Rocky Mountain Goods Fireplace Shovel 17" - Heavy Gauge Steel - Heat Resistant Finish - Leather Hang Strap - Coal Shovel

It's an ash shovel, and it does its job well. You have to take it by the handle and scoop it down into the ashes for it to work. Then you can use it to lift the ashes out of the area and move them to a different location, presumably an ash bucket. Do not buy if you feel you would have difficulty in performing any of these tasks. :-)Seriously though, it's well-made and a good value for the money.

Ideal for my application of cleaning charcoal ash from a very large BBQ grill.

Worked great for my smoker grill in getting out the ashes

Sturdy little shovel proved to work well to clean out our wood stove. The ‘fireplace sets’ sold include shovels that just don’t hold up with weekly use. It would be helpful if this one was just a couple of inches longer.

The shovel works great for ashes and cleaning our litter box! If you’ve ever had a cat you will love it!

Its a typical metal fireplace/woodstove ash shovel. What else can I say. Works good for me.

Works well for me. Build with good quality. A little bit thick for scooping,but gets the job done. The length of the handle is reasonable.

Item is not very large and more on the compact side, but that’s exactly what I wanted because I needed a smaller shovel to get ash out of my firepit..This is made from heavy duty steel and is solid. The shovel head is shaped well so that it holds the ashes like a spoon while it has a straight edge for scooping..Easy to hold and use. While this is solid, it’s not too heavy at all. Solid craftsmanship.
