Looking for a replacement shovel

17 years ago

My favorite shovel broke! It can't be repaired, and there are no manufacturer's markings on it. Before I make the dreary round of what passes for customer service in some of our stores searching for a replacement, I thought I'd poll the members here to see if anyone remembers seeing one of these:

3 feet long
D-handle
round point shovelhead
shovelhead only 6 inches wide (regular shovels are 8-1/2)

This shovel was perfect for digging around plants in established bed as well as numerous other tasks! I'm going to miss that guy and hope to find his "son" soon to carry on our fine partnership.
