The Black Diamond Ice/Barn Scraper is made with heavy duty materials and with durability in mind. The sturdy, hardwood handle provides extra strength and resistance against bending, while the tempered steel blade is designed to efficiently scrape dense snow, ice and/or other debris off a variety of surfaces. Metal rivets offer more stability when scraping and allow for a smoother motion. Furthermore, the long handle provides more comfort and enables work to be done in an upright position. The Black Diamond Ice/Barn Scraper is the perfect solution for the challenges associated with cold weather!
