Good snow shovels?
Looking to get a high-quality snow shovel. The last one we bought was when we lived in Wisconsin - nice heavy steel blade, has held up to salt and abuse for over ten years. The piddly plastic crap at Lowe's isn't going to cut it - anybody know any companies that still make real, steel snow shovels?

. It's no prob - just sitting here at work waiting for the traffic to clear before heading home - leave it to Cincinnatians to make a traffic jam out of 2" of snow!

That looks like an aluminum grain shovel from the farm store. They do make good snow shovels but aren't as durable for use as ice-breakers like the steel ones are.

from all my past experience (trust me, it's lots) the best place to find a snow shovel is hanging in the garage. Rusted away from lack of use. 
However, somewhere like Farm and Fleet (dunno if they're in OH) should be able to help. Places I am familiar with eg. Acklands and Canadian Tire likely won't be much help to you where you are!

It's my pot and I'll stir it if I want to. If you're not careful, I'll stir your's as well!
Getting my education here. Never knew what a snow shovel was before I saw a picture here. 
Can't buy one down here.
