A spade is an item that appears in most of the games in the Fable series. It is required to dig up items that have been buried throughout Albion and Aurora.
Fable and The Lost Chapters[]
As the Hero walks over a place where something is hidden, in Fable and Fable: The Lost Chapters, the action icons change to the head of a spade.

A spade can be found in a chest outside the Gravekeeper's hut in Lychfield Graveyard. Alternatively, it can purchased at shops in the following locations:
Fable II[]
In Fable II, the Hero's dog will lead them to a dig spot. When the dog starts digging the action icon will allow the user to dig.
- Base Value: 25 gold
- Stars: ★☆☆☆☆
- Description: An ordinary garden variety spade, allowing you to dig up all manner of buried items.
Acquisition[]
A spade can be found early in the game in a chest next to the Hero's caravan. It can also be purchased at General Goods Stores.
Fable III[]
In Fable III, the Hero already owns a spade from the start of the game and it cannot be sold or bought from any stalls. As in Fable II, the Hero's dog will lead the Hero to dig spots.
Notes[]
- In Fable you can "walk" through walls by putting you back towards a wall and using your spade near it. This exploit can allow to reach certain places early on in the game. However, this exploit can result in your game becoming stuck if you are not careful.
- While chasing Jack of Blades you will go to Orchard Farm. When you are here you can use the spade exploit on the barricade behind you to get into Greatwood. If you travel to other areas in the game after doing this you will be able to see areas in the game under attack by Jack's Minions.
