I would avoid stainless steel ones, I’ve broken several, and avoid wooden handles. I had an ash handle snap, it seemed to be brittle, possibly a poor cut of wood. They do say a fork is not for levering things and should not get to the point of breaking. But I have a bulldog and it does seem stronger than stainless ones. If you intend to lever something, use a mattock or a spade.
