I needed to replace the broken handles for my garden fork and spade. These ones were very fairly priced in comparison with other traders, well-made and of good quality. Highly recommended.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New
Shaft was very long and no rivet supplied to fix to spade blade - but managed to get it to fit after several hours with a spoke shave, and gradually reducing the length, (Only had the spade blade with broken stub of original shaft - hence the long refit time) Made my own rivet from left over kitchen unit joiner - nice flat head - with allen key - flattened other end with hammer. Value - Priced within competitor price - Quality - Finished with a Varnish coat- rather than plain wood.

Needed this for an old but good fork where the original handle had snapped off just at the handle entry point. Drilled out the old rivet and the remainder of the handle and this one went straight in. A few hard knocks between the tines with a heavy hammer to seat it right in and then drilled for a 6mm nut bolt and spring washer. Rivet ok for factory assembly but not necessary for a home repair. Fork is over 25 years old now as good as new again. The wood that the handle is made from is not as tough as the original as I think that was hickory or similar....but for £6 who's complaining....certainly not me. Wife is so pleased especially as it's hers...as the picture shows.

Obviously this handle is to fit numerous sizes of spades ,shovels and forks, so it needs a bit larger to fit them all. It can be a hard /difficult to cut and sand the shaft down to fit. Still a good buy though.

The tapered end was slightly smaller in diameter than my spade but with the aid of my bench vice I made it a decent fit. I thought the shaft was made of red pine and it seems strong enough for general garden digging. I used it in my garden and I am satisfied with its performance.
