The plastic handled jobs I saw in Wilkos for £6 something looked pretty

I bought a pair of cheapish plastic ( fibreglass tube AFAICT) and
stainless steel jobs. The steel bits are fine. The plastic bits cannot
cope with levering out roots. Four Candles anyone ?
Get one of these:

Gets roots in a jiffy as you get some really long leverage. Great for
levering out metpost spikes, lumps of concrete around fence posts,
anything heavy. Also makes mincemeat of heavy clay/stone sub-soil.

If not then I urge you to. Best bit of kit I ever bought. Expensive I know
but will last a lifetime, and some more.
