Sturdy Blade

By Pete Stone Ranked #398 - Shovels November 10, 2008

This shovel has a sturdy build and is light for the strength of this shovel. I like the handle, although the shaft of the handle has an odd shape it works ok, but I would not want it shaped like this on a big scoop shovel...seems okay on this size though.March 24, 2010 Update: Used the shovel to chop into the ice surrounding the hot tub in Park City and my buddy had some other avy shovel that was bigger but aluminum. My shovel was able to basically be used like an ice chopper to get into what was once snow but so firm you can jump up and down on it and not make a foot imprint. I broke it loose and he shoveled out the big chunks. Shovel is holding up very well after two season of various types of use. Haven't dug anyone out yet thank God.
