Back in the early 80s razorback was made by union fork and Hoe. When you work with your hands for a living you tend to be really picky about the tools you select to work with After Hurricane Irma pasted I was in the need for another pitch fork / manure fork. The forks consist of five tynes which are made out of cast iron, And they appear strong enough to where they’re probably forged and maybe heat treated ? The handle looks like it’s made out of white oak. Has a very good balance and rlets you maximize you grip. The length of the handle is 4’6” long which is perfect. If I didn’t know any better this is the same handle they put on the square point shovel’s. Its a brute, You won’t break it I assure you. Like most tools, real tradesmen tend to modify them a little for there own Particular needs. I spent about 35 minutes cleaning up the sandcast lines on the tines of the fork by sanding them out with a flap wheel on a 6 inch grinder. This small modification Let you release material off of the fork much faster because there’s no drag on the rough edges once there polished out. Just like sharpening the edge of a square point shovel when you’re digging makes a big difference. I ordered this tool online from tractor supply they said I would have it in a week. It was free shipping to our store in Apopka the package said UPS on it. It was in my hands in four days not one week. If you can keep it out of the weather, Just like any other High quality tool it will last a lifetime.

Forks are made in China. I thought the higher price would prove better quality than others. Not the case. Save your money and go with a Truper.
