Something tells me you know a thing or two about using tools. I have been curious about this for a while. Being no stranger to using and even wearing out pioneer tools, I prefer a quality wood handle ( Ashe or Hickory) but it seems the minute someone else (employees) pick one up there goes the wood handle ( mostly from prying), strange because I have worn out many shovels down at the metal of the edge?

Which would be best for team kits, wood, fiberglass or plastic?
