Heavy duty potato fork

It doesn't call it a heavy duty potato fork it calls it a heavy duty digging fork and the one next to it is a potato fork.

The red one is the heavy duty digging fork !

Oh yeah it calls it a potato fork.
It is a beet fork anyway that one could certainly use with potatoes if one felt inclined

It is a beet fork. Definately. What handle does it have and can you see any identifying name on it.

hi pink ive posted the pic off handle there is no makers mark on it but if you look at the close up off the buisness end ,i thought that the outside tines were bent but that is how they were made (curious )

dorimower · « **Reply #17 on:** May 14, 2008, 19:53 »

I supect the outer tines will be turned in a bit at the top to give a bit of shoulder to the sides so as to hold in the commodity being "shovelled"...as whatever this forks real title is...it is effectively a fork for shovelling the commodity from off a flat surface rather than digging.

All the best,

I looked this up in a book at work today.
it's listed as a "general purpose loading "fork"
well, thats what the company selling them to us call it.......... :roll:

PinkTequila · « **Reply #22 on:** May 18, 2008, 12:52 »

it was a bargain whatever it is, I can never resist buying any forks and spades I see, I do seem to be running out of room for them though!

Likewise.....

...and add...I despair when I look at the general ranges of current new garden hand tools on sale...

Could it be a Coal fork...

lo all
i used that kind of fork when i was a laddie,loading turnips in to a hopper to get chopped up to feed cattle and sheep.one fork similar to that was ,what we called it a tattie harp which had rounded tines from the T piece down to the tip where you had weld like blobs of metal so you didnt damage the tatties when you were harping them into the back of the dresser to get bagged up.

I've got one of these, my father in law had had it for years and told me it was a mucking out fork.

I use it for clearing out my Pig sty, it's brilliant for the job

philskin · « **Reply #26 on:** May 29, 2008, 18:45 »

So I guess its an up and downer over and under metallic turnip composting ditch cleaning loading potato fork then, blooming clever people in the old days lol

Baz · « **Reply #27 on:** May 31, 2008, 19:31 »

Yep, it's a "mucking out" fork alright, used 'em many times as a young man, mucking out stys and pens and floats
