I have this old digging fork. Like nothing I have ever seen. It has a long ferrule that splits into an upper and lower wing with the rivet up the handle about a foot. I wanted to save that ferrule so I got this handle, as it is the first time I have seen anything close to the original. I will need to steam it and reform the bend up about six inches to make it fit right but I still have the old handle to make a form for the bend. This was my favorite fork and I can't wait to use it again. It was this and the octagonal hammer handles that led me to Beaver-tooth.``
