Maybe an Erie Digger is what you're after.

That Erie Digger is quite cool!
I haven't seen anything like that before.


I hadn't, either. After reviewing it, I'm not sure they sell a whole
lot of 'em. The movable shovel doesn't change angle, so it prolly
doesn't pick up a lot of dirt in one scoop. The lever probably gets in
the way, too. Interesting, nonetheless.
