Which shovel is that Truth? To have it break at that point is really a weird deal,and with what looks like minimal stress distortion on the rest of the shovel and handle. I’d trim the bad part off both pieces and stick a stainless rod into both of them...then fry it all back together. That is, unless it’s under warranty!
 

Is your name really “Bam Bam”?
 

Geeeeez, Truth!!! 😱
 

Went through that Myself

Switched to Wilcox (Red Handle) Diggers

No more Broken Diggers.

Of course I don't use Trench Diggers

the 13" Weeder, Not a Kellyco Item that I'm Aware, But Indestructible & Great in Hard Clay.

And

Kellyco 22x3" Long Handled Trowel
If you were to buy one of These :

Lay it Sideways, Hammer the Scoop into a U Shape

It will outlast You :thumbsup:

if you don't reinforce it by Reshaping, The Scoop will Eventually Bend Back,
if your Like me & Forget yourself and Use it to Pry Roots & Rocks.

You shouldn't bend the Shaft.

It under warranty. It’s the parana and I think it’s made cheap or I’m just a beast. I’m going to send her back and let them know that I want there Supermax (thick steal)

Dam bro you be rough on that gear the Gravedigger shovels look pretty rugged
 

Stop hittin’ the gym brother, yer a little too burley for your own good. I have a NX5 (I think) I got from metal detectors.com, anyway, super heavy duty but my first time out with it, I bent it prying up a root, couldn’t believe it.

My next one will be much better because I can’t stop doing what I’m doing the way I do it lol
