Has anybody had any problems with dirt or debris getting in between the handle and blade, stopping it from collapsing/extending? It's my only concern before buying this shovel

Yeah I have, just a little bit of welly and shaking around clears debris or ice off of the shovel. Worst comes to worst you just detach the handle and give it a good whack in the snow, does the job well!
