I don't think that it is a potato fork!

I have one of a comparable era, and it was called something like
Power Digger. If it is the same, it has a steel shaft, both the
handle and blades are at a slightly greater angle to the shaft
than usual, and the tines are 5-sided.

It might have been Spear and Jackson.
