I don't remember the lore saying that his shovel was magic. I imagine since he died his shovel not unlike the reaper's scythe. A theatrical tool to represent the character and his mode of operations and not the literal tool that's inclined to traditional use.

Ahh I see. In the rework notes it uses the line "Magical Family Shovel" Which is a line that sounds absurd. Not a line I would have written unless I happened to be interested in taking the piss. Still though I stand by it. It may technically be magical because it's no longer JUST a family shovel. Since he died and was revived from the Shadow Isles he uses his shovel to raise the dead. The dark powers he's been granted makes the shovel an extension of himself.
