A spade is a multi-functional tool used for a variety of activities. One of its major uses is in the Farming skill, though it also comes in handy for many quests and Treasure Trails. A spade is also needed to enter the Barrows crypts and the Mole Hole.
Spades are sold in farming shops and many general stores, and an infinite supply can be added to the player-owned house by making a tool store 2. They can also be obtained from a rogue kit, or taken from scenery objects found in various places. Finally, players can ask Konoo at the saltpetre mine in Hosidius for a spare spade.
