## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hi ~ Is this still made in Britain or is it Chinese now, too?  Thanks for your help!**

**Q: is it made in england?**
A: Yes, it's made in england.

**Q: Will the tines bend in rocky ground?  I’m looking for a fork for clamming.**
A: I can't say that they will never bend, but I'm sure that without using excess force, this fork will do the job. I've had one for at least 30 years and it is still as good as new. Even the handle!

Bellissima vanga, fatta molto bene. Manico in legno robusto, perfetta per terreni duri. Un po’ corta ma per questo tipo di lavoro va bene così.
