Title: Very solid!
Review: I was looking for a sturdy shovel, and I always look for Made in USA. This fits the bill on both counts. It's built like a tank.I checked every local hardware store, and not a decent shovel to be found. Eleven varieties of Ames True Temper, a few off brands, a few store brands. A few had decent handles, but every single one without exception had soft, thin, cheap imported steel (in a few cases "tempered in USA") guaranteed to bend or break under any strenuous work.Where I come from, the ground is filled with rocks. A shovel takes a beating digging even a modest hole. You have to be able to stand on the foot braces and jump up and down, and scrape and auger and pound. Cheap junk won't cut it.This Bully Tools shovel has as solid construction as I have ever seen in a shovel. Pound on the blade, and it gives that distinctive deep thud you'd associate with a whack from a cast iron pan. Very nice. Heartily recommended.
