Second That!johnnycat said:For years I did with "gardening" diggers. Some were decent, some weren't worth the time it took to make them. Finally I broke down and finally bought a Lesche...End of the searching period. Worth every penny.
Think that might void the "Craftsman lifetime warrenty" But a good idea!tabdog said:I made that one out of a Craftsman 15" long 1/2" drive

Actually, mine is! It's serrated from top to bottom on one side, and then sharpened like a knife edge on the other side. It also has two prongs on the tip that work well for getting into it. Oh yeah, it has a "lifetime warranty" too. The only downside, the blade isn't full tang... so people who are hard on their tools might possibly break it. I finally saw one broken on here not that long ago.
