Shovel handle find

Post by Carter »

Bought this handle at a local place that sells stuff they get at store inventory buy outs. They only had one or I would have gotten more. Fits the Razor Back blade well, even came with 2 steel handle rivets. Cost $12

It was a lucky find and like my buddy Bruce said a good catch. John, I would have liked to have scored that many although it is not military it has an old style look to it and it fits the pioneer tool rack OK but that yellow stain has got to go!
