Got an American spade now do the do a fork?

I bought an American style spade and it's been brilliant for me as I have a prolapsed disk and this tool means I don't put any strain on my back.

Now I'm wondering if anywhere does a fork of the same sort of style?

Asked in B&Q and they were just clueless.

Minty they are great for bad backs, I've never seen a fork in that style

, I can remember seeing an illustration once of a double width fork with long handles on either side bet you could do some serious digging with that !

Just done a quick google and found one http://www.get-digging.co.uk/tools.htm
