[QUOTE="DrDuck, post: 538808, member: 158"] I've never seen a shovel fail in this way. Usually the handles go when you are inappropriately using the shovel as a crow bar to move big rocks. I've had this shovel since 2011, and it's had a lot of use. By the way, wooden handles are more durable than fiberglass handles. Still, I have a spare in the shed, that I've been throwing into the back of the ute for years just in case. There is nothing worse than shovel failure on the creek when many hours from home.
