Guest AngelicAcid Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 When did they start to sell the better olnes then? I got a silverline a few years ago just wondered. Maybe bellman got a bucket load on the cheap? Not knocking them though. Quote Link to post

Dosser 52 Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 This is one of the tools we use, and they're spot on mate. Are they still showing that on the website ? That is not the shovel you will recieve from B+F, the one they sell now is made up of 3 peices. He reckons the ones in the pic were prone to shatter. Quote Link to post
