Hello,

I have seen potato forks in the garden centre. They claims that the
flattened tynes prevent you from spearing your potatoes. Is that
true?
Surely if you are unlucky enough to push it directly onto a potato
it
will still spear it?

TIA

They're OK, but as you've already suggested they're no substitute for
due care. Spearing spuds isn't bad luck, it's lack of care.
