You get what you pay for. If you buy a cheap fork, that's what you get.
Personally I have a succession of cheap ones, because I leave it in the shed
on the allotment, and therefore gets nicked. A cheap fork hurts less to get
nicked.

If you want a strong, long lasting one, try for a name you've heard of, like
for instance Spear and Jackson.

One of the four that have broken was actually a Spear and Jackson,
whilst the one from B&Q cost £20. Not what I would call cheap and
cheerful (well, not when it was sitting next to ones costing £5). The
one from Asda ... yes, most definitely cheap and very, very nasty ;-)
