Fiskars Pro Stick D Handle Round Shovel

Yes there's cheaper shovels available and that may be all you need for now. I recently bought a Fiskars rake to replace a cheap wooden handle rake that snapped in half. I bought this shovel to replace a cheap wooden handle shovel that also broke while using it. Somehow wood doesn't seem to be what it used to be. Could be it's all genetically engineered to be disposable. I usually avoid anything plastic because it tends to deteriorate and break. The orange handle on this shovel is solid and supported on both sides with hard metal. It's the same as the Fiskars scissors and pruners that I've had for 20 years, still like new. Overall this shovel is built like a tank, solid, nothing loose, no rattles. It has a full lifetime warranty, something you'll probably never need to use. Hard to believe, it's made in China, possibly by the best and brightest kids in the factory.
