Faithfull FAIASFMYD All Steel Contractors Digging Fork MYD Handle, Silver

Great tool, I had the spade which was excellent so bought the fork which is also superb, good delivery & well worth the money.

Looks very durable - hopefully no more broken wooden handles! Very solid and weighty - only issue is that mine is a purple/brown colour not red as shown, which is a shame as it will make it harder to spot in the garden.

This is a heavy duty tool - very well made and very robust compared to some of the shiny stainless steel tools available. It is quite heavy but I guess that's the price you pay for it's strength. Recommended.

Not used in anger yet, but appears to be very solid. Tines are very chunky, perhaps wont sink into grounds as easy as thin flimsy ones, but hopefully wont bend easily. Nice wooden hand grip. Very happy.

After less than 30 minutes of use I noticed that at lease three of the prongs had bent - one of them severely. What surprised me most was how little force was required to cause the damage - I used the fork while digging up some herbs from a border. At no point did I suspend all my weight on the fork's handle. I would describe the pressure which I exerted as 'moderate'. This is not only the worst gardening tool I've ever used, but it's also the poorest quality item which I've ever had the misfortune to purchase from Amazon.

Poorly coated and/or stored so the coating was patchy and scratched in many places, especially at the edges of the prongs. I used some car paint touch-up stick to cover up any steel showing though, in the hopes of fending rust. The fork seems sturdy enough, but the prongs were slightly misaligned after one hour of use. And as other people have commented, the fork is not red, more puce. I'm not happy at the price for the product received. But hopefully it will not rust and will last a long time, so I'm being positive and giving it 3 stars.

Makes a difference when you are digging to bae able to go full out and know if you hit something your tool will keep working. Great tool worth the money.

Bought this as I had 1 wooden shaft break and 1 tine break on previous forks. Good solid digging fork for heavy stony ground. Not a lightweight tool but it needs to be strongly made to take the stresses.
