Is this fork suitable for clay soil?

Yes. The forged tines are strong enough for heavy clay, though wet clay clings to the tines and needs clearing as you work.

How does it compare with a stainless steel fork?

It is heavier and needs handle maintenance, but the forged head is tougher against stones and roots than most stainless forks.

It is a traditional Y-shaped ash grip that gives a firm hold and lets you lever the fork without your hands slipping.

Yes. The four tines are spaced to lift root crops, and the 10-inch tine length gets under the tubers.

The head is fitted to the handle, but check the joint and tighten or re-seat it if it works loose with use.
