I found this el-cheapo shovel (made in China) alongside the US made Ames and others. As I was only going to dig 4 or 5 holes and then be done with the shovel, I bought this Chinese made one. I was pleasantly surprised that the handle didn't break or the metal bend. So, like buying a Chinese tool at Harbor Freight for a one time job, these shovels are perfectly suited for the homeowner.
