Description states steel tubular handle but some reviews state wooden handle. Which is it? Steel or wood?

It is certainly NOT a steel tubular handle. Mine is some type of wood handle painted gray.

i had to send this back because the wood pole would not connect to the shovel. it came assembled and it was a piece of crap. amazon stopped selling this so don't waste your money.

I did not realize the product description is inaccurate until now. It is a light weight wooden handle.

The handle is sort of rubberized and I think the blade is just molded inside of it. Very sturdy, I have cut down trees with it.

The handle is not round. It is oval, which fits nicely in your hand. It feels like solid stainless steel, but I'm not positive. It is lightweight and easy to handle. I really like mine

It is wood on top of the metal. You will not be disappointed with this knife.

Stainless steel. I am not certain if it is a full tang handle. Are there ways to tell?

It has three handles in a brushed steel , like stainless steel brushed and are 5 3/4 inches if you measure from end to end. Very well made product i highly recommend it for the price it was nicer than one we saw at Nebraska Furniture Mart in KC and half the cost. Hope that helps.

This is the "Best" at any price. The handle is wooden & the newer models seem to be plastic.

I've only seen the one handle. But to answer your question, the same wooden handle as pictured in the ad. EDIT: I think I understand what you are asking. The pictures of the customized handle were added by a customer and not actually what is being sold. The un-customized handle that is in the ad picture (first picture) is the one that you will get.

Depends on which seller you buy from. SwordsAxe has authentic wooden handle that is painted and refined. Some other sellers have cheap plastic handles.

I think the handle is wood but don't quote me on it. Seems pretty substantial.

When I looked at the knife, the handle appeared to be made out of brass. It was a yellow brass color. It could have been stainless steel, but i have never seen brass colored stainless steel. it had more of the feel of brass than stainless steel.

Yes the handle is rosewood. I currently own one myself and I would highly recommend buying this knife.

I'm not sure as to the specific type of wood. What I can say however is that the shovel is surprisingly lightweight, if that is the concern. Visually, it looks no different from any other wooden shovel handle.

Picture on amazon showed wood.. Description wood.. I expected wood !!! Received plastic handles. My husband not happy as we were replacing pigtails with wood handles !!

The handle is wood and is just what I need. I'm a wood carver and clamps hold down the vise.

My handle is wooden and the base is cast iron. Mine is older, and I noticed one answer given was a plastic handle so maybe they have changed from wood to plastic.
