Spade

The Spade is a tool added by GregTech 6. While similar to a shovel, it is only capable of digging through blocks such as Snow, Grass, Mycelium, Podzol, Mud, and Clay. It cannot dig Gravel. In exchange for these restrictions the Spade has a higher mining speed and also acts as if it had the Silk Touch enchantment.

Recipe
The Spade can be made out of any tool material, but only the Steel recipe is listed here.
