Market Gardener

The Market Gardener is a melee weapon available to the soldier form non-chest sources beginning on the first boss level. It swings for 4 damage every 0.5 seconds with a range of 0.3 making it identical to the shovel except that while rocket jumping it one shots enemies, just like the equalizer.

Strategy
Mandarbmax says: The market gardener is not a bad weapon, but it is quite difficult to use this weapon to its fullest extent so I often skip it, though in the hands of a skilled player it could be quite nice.
