Product Description
From the Manufacturer
Discover garden tools unlike any you've ever held before. The Radius Garden Natural Radius Grip PRO Digging Fork #203 was designed using the most current research into human factors and tool usage. The patent-pending, Natural Radius Grip, maximizes your power and comfort while minimizing hand and wrist stress. Traditional garden tools force you to use your hands and wrists in a way that can cause injuries. The curve of the grip matches the curve of the palm of your hand. This allows you to hold the tools with your wrist in a safe, neutral position at all angles of attack. This maximizes power and comfort while minimizing wrist and hand stress. The large grips on Radius tools allow you to hold the tool securely without exerting pressure and wasting your energy. The PRO series tools feature four times the gripping surface of conventional tools, with room for both hands! The blades of these tools are made of a special aluminum/magnesium alloy. It weighs less than conventional die cast aluminum, but has strength similar to steel. The tools are lighter weight yet have equal or greater strength than traditional garden tools. The advanced ergonomic design should make gardening easier and more enjoyable. Built as professional quality tools, Radius Garden NRG PRO tools come with a lifetime guarantee.

Well Balanced Tools,
By
This review is from: Radius Garden 203 PRO Ergonomic Stainless Steel Digging Fork (Lawn & Patio)
When I first came across these, I thought they looked neat, and maybe they might not function so bad. The look had additional marketing appeal for my landscaping company, something to set us aside from others.
However, I wasn't really sure they'd suit a functional purpose, so I tentatively ordered the shovel to give it a trial run and to see if I could live with it. I've since gone out and stocked up on all the NRG-PRO tools, their hand tools, and I'm looking forward to at least some of the NRG-STX series tools as well. All of the tools have a great balance. They are easier to control and carry materials across distances ~ a simple open hand across the circular handle keeps them from spinning and dropping whatever they're carrying. I've also found the handle design helps keep them from rolling or causing too much trouble when toting them around across the arms of a wheelbarrow. The nice green does seem to get dulled quickly from the mud and, even when washed clean, still loses that new-tool shine. The business end has no such problems and remains easy to clean even when it has a right not to. I'm tall ~ over 6' ~ and I never thought I'd like the short handles on these, however, I've found they're more comfortable even digging down below grade. This is a bit of personal taste, as my son, slightly shorter than I, prefers long handled tools. I've snapped several expensive, pro-quality forks, and have yet to manage to do any damage to this one at all. I've mistaken it for a prybar, and used it to remove rocks of a variety of sizes. I've also used it to remove about 30 or so square feet of hosta, two mature lilacs, and a mature rose-of-sharon. On one job, this fork moved upwards of 11 cubic yards of mulch... and those are just some of the highlights! If I could only have two of the NRG-PRO tools, it would be the spade and this fork. I don't know if I could whittle the choice down to one, and thankfully, I don't have to!

Bendable tines and poor customer service,
This review is from: Radius Garden 203 PRO Ergonomic Stainless Steel Digging Fork (Lawn & Patio)
The tines of this fork are extremely malleable compared to other digging forks. They bent severely on the very first use. When I wrote to the company, Radius, they were very slow to get back to me and when they did, they offered to replace it if I paid shipping in both directions plus a $10 handing fee. This would bring the cost for two additional shipping charges, plus that fee, to above what it would cost to buy a likely better and brand new fork from a store. In fact, I did just that and have an excellent, strong and durable Craftsman now. I will try to bend the tines back to their original position and save my ergonomic Radius fork for digging only in soft materials such as straw and leaves.

Best one so far.,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Radius Garden 203 PRO Ergonomic Stainless Steel Digging Fork (Lawn & Patio)
After reading the reviews for other digging forks I ordered this one and have not been disappointed with the results. The fork and tines are made of stainless steel in one piece, which makes it more sturdy than the welded ones. I have very rocky soil here in Va. and it dug the ground very well. The handle is soft and has a good grip. It kept my hands from blistering which sometimes happened with others. Radius Garden Natural Radius Grip PRO Digging Fork #203I would recommend this fork above other ones as the experience I have had is very satisfactory.
