I know, I know! This has been discussed more than once already, and I
*know* how you guys hate talking about a garden subject again. ;-)

I've got a garden fork head that I've had for at least twenty years.
The times are thicker front-to-back than they are side-to-side, so you
can really crank down on the thing. The problem is that the tang is too
big to go into any of the replacement handles I've found. So I'm
finally tired of fooling around, and ready to buy a good fork.

What do y'all use/like?

By far for value and quality:

Thanks, V, I knew you'd know!

Keep in mind these are border forks and digging tools, but we have very heavy
soil with rocks and these are not heavy duty tools. I mean, they are fine to do
heavy work with them, but be careful and don't force or push too hard on them.
I would go as far to say these are more forks and other tools which are great
for an established bed, or areas which are irrigated and not hard as a rock.
They are beautiful and the price is absolutely amazing. In this case, the lower
price does not reflect poor materials. They are beautiful. I have them.
