Well a few years ago Sue and friends bought me the Bulldog stainless
steel
spade and matching fork for Christmas, it cost them £100 for each I
understand, and they were a special order.
When I thought I had lost the fork a couple of years ago I enquired
about
a
replacement and found out that Bulldog no longer make these British
made
tools as they were too expensive for the market even though they are,
simply, the best. Shame.


What is it which makes a £100 spade any better than my spade which I
bought
for £5?

Quality, workmanship, materials, ease of using, pleasure of
using............

To me your question is rather like saying, why is a "S" Class any better
than a Trabant?
