Today I snapped my hand trowel from the handle, the third time in
recent
weeks. I am now left with two hand forks, the first fork also
snapped. The
latest trowel to snap was a recommended good make. Any
recommendations for a
*VERY* good make would be most welcome.

Mine is the cheapest I could find at Woolworths 20 years ago. It
still works, but I must admit I don't use it for dislodging big
stones. I have a small hand pick for that.
