Teresa, I did.

Ken, you are so right. I love Amazon for just the reasons you mentioned plus the benefits of Prime membership. That's where this fork came from.

Leslie, garden forks and spading forks are two different things. The garden forks are more petite so they can get between plants and pull up a specific plant. Being small myself, I love the smaller forks and shovels. If you just want a standard fork go to Ace hardware, Lowes or somewhere else and get a stock one. That should do you fine and it will cost less. You might want to keep this smaller one around for it's intended purpose.

It seems there is a lot of confusion over garden forks, but no matter what you call them you know what you want when you see it!

This would be my choice after looking around a bit, I like the longer handle. If I had my choice I would actually prefer a steel or fiberglass handle, something that would not bend or beak when lifting an elephant!

I think the handle isn't as important as the tines. I've picked a couple in the past and after a couple of times using them in my hard clay, gravel and rock the tines might as well have been cooked spaghetti. Others have been much, much better (but I can still manage to bend a tine in my soil).

Sometime I feel like I am digging in rocks!

Thanks for the info Guys! I'm off to Home Depot today to peruse the array.

I used to dig daylilies with a shovel much to the dismay of the poor daylily. The only digging / dividing tool I use now is a garden fork. The tines are much easier on the plants as it doesn't break the roots like a shovel and brings up much less soil. I have this one from Agway

My hubby recently installed a couple of these 'Fast Track' Storage rails.
He had enough of my disorganized garden tools......

And, I purchased a bucket caddy for carrying my hand tools around the yard. Love It. :)

On my wooden handle tools, I use boiled linseed oil every fall and spring.
Take care of your tools, they'll take care of you.

How far apart are the tines? I have a old pitch fork but I am guessing the head is much larger.
