Topic: Recommend a digging Fork Please?

[PeterVV]

Mine has bent tynes and Father Christmas is coming soon, want a good strong fork please....

I bought a Bulldog fork with last years Christmas vouchers ;).  Cost £34 from B&Q but can cost  up to around £40.  Tines are supposed to be guaranteed for life.  Having had 4 previous ones, this has certainly been the best for me.

My wife bought me a contractors fork from B&Q for christmas last year and I have not managed to break it yet so I recommend that one.

We have two Spear & Jackson Neverbend forks - a full size and a border fork, and they're (apparently) indestructible.

I agree about Bulldog, which is an excellent brand.  You might also look at Wilkinson Sword if you prefer stainless, although stainless will never be as strong as good carbon steel.  Well, not at economic prices, anyway.

Mine was a fiver from the market; solid steel, heavy, and unbreakable. Keep your eyes opem, you never know what you're going to find.

i've got a Friskars power fork which i haven't broken yet (and i break them for a passtime)

Bulldog is the brand chosen by the Queen   (good old Crowfoot brand) to give to her troops in married quarters, so you cannot argue with that. ::)

How about a tattie fork, they are difficult to find and I think would be appreciated.    ;D     Cheers,     Tony.

I have broken so  many but now realise you need a normal(steel)  fork for digging things out but save your stainless steel for digging over. I've been buying Joseph Bentely tools in last few years and been pleased with the quality. I've gone No-dig now so only use occasionally.
