Rob Todd must have gotten a little frustrated working in his garden and not having both spade and fork available at the same time. So he went into his shop and Frankensteined up this combo between a fork and a spade.
According to Todd’s site, the Spork performs many of the tasks that a spade and a fork can, along with some things a shovel can do, including “digging, cutting roots, forking up weeds, surface skimming, cutting turf, and breaking down the soil surface into a seed bed.” The Spork comes in a mini version and in other varieties as well.
It looks like the site is based in England, so a D-handled Spork will run you 60 GBP or $84.

I like it. It does look like the kind of tool Lee Valley would carry.
