Might be cheaper than ordering one and have to pay for shipping as well when you can go down to the local hardware store and buy a shovel handle for under $10.

I wish handles were cheap 15.99 for the handle and 18.99 for a new shovel I have a pile of shovel heads laying around when some day I find a stash of cheap handles or get the time to build a shave horse and get out my draw knife. America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.
