    My fiancé snapped the handle off my lovely garden fork lately but has replaced it quite successfully. Perhaps you can find somewhere to fix yours?

    That's actually a lovely idea that had not occurred to me, Jenni!

    I would definitely advise trying in person at a garden centre/DIY place if you can.
    Unfortunately, because most tools & implements are packaged up in plastic, etc. it's getting more and more difficult to try things out in GCs. I couldn't even get the man to let me try out the last pairs of secateurs I purchased. :D

    Well-done, otherwise you might have had to replace your fiancé. ;)

    Fortunately (at least locally), spades and forks are just hung on display plastic free @Papi Jo. It's easy to take one down and test for height, weight and general comfort.
