Home Depot has most Husky brand garden tools, ie, shovels, hoes, rakes, etc. 50% or more off. If I recall correctly, they are mostly manufactured by Ames. Assembled in US with US and foreign components....

I picked up a 70 inch digging bar, regularly $32 for $7.00 :drool:

As Always, YMMV

Thanks! I was there getting a $120 bathroom sink on clearance for $30 anyways, so I figured I'd stop by the garden center and check them out.

Damn good deals is all I gotta say! I picked up a pitch fork, 2 spade shovels, 2 flat shovels, and a gravel rake... All with fiberglass handles, for $11 each. My mom is a self-employed landscaper, so she grabbed several herself. Normal prices were between $25 and $36

What's the SKU on that digging bar? None at my stores were marked down.

Oh, the metal parts on all are stamped US made.

One local store had Ames 5 tine pitchforks for $22, while others had the regular $35 price.
These are rarely discounted. If you need to move ****, you apparently aren't that price sensitive. After I bought, the price dropped to $18, albeit with only the lonely bent tine one still there.

My wife wanted a made-in-USA pitchfork from a local store, but I wasn't able to find one. These have USA in big letters on the sticker, but like most have a made-in-Austria head, Presumably they are 'assembled' in the US.. they attach a handle and put on a product sticker.

Saw this thread and hit the local HD over lunch today. They had quite a few things on sale. I ended up getting the digging bar, $31.97 marked down to $7.40. That sucker is heavy!!

It looks like each store is having sales on different items. I have been to three different stores and each had different items on sale.

Heads up guys. I went to my local one and the prices were regular price. I called over a guy who then went and got a price checker... An hour later I walked out with a ton of garden tools. The guy told me that they are discontinuing the Husky garden line.

They may be marked as full price, but they ring with great discounted prices!

I got a bunch of spades, shovels rakes and brooms and a hoe, all over 50% off. The manager said that Husky was bought out by Razorback so all the husky named shovels were going cheap.

Only the fiberglass handled ones were one sale at the one I went to (North Richmond VA) as the wood handled ones were regular price. The fiberglass ones were limited to only the rakes in stock at the time, everything else was sold out, especially the 10# sledge that would have been great. Will have to look around for the digging bar.

Husky line of yard tools is being replaced by Razorback - I was told both have lifetime warranty.

They are also bring out a mid-range line (HDX maybe?).

I looked at the clearance Husky digging shovels and wasn't impressed.

The Blade has a long "supersocket" where it attached to the handle. This added weight and the socket had sharp edges. The extended socket also happens to lay about where your hand would as you would lift a shovel full of dirt.

My first thought was that I would have to wrap the "supersocket" with tape to make the shovel of use for any practical digging purposes.

The Blade also had an impressed "Husky" moniker that would cause dirt to stick to it which of course, is the last thing you want in a digging shovel.

The shovel step could have been bigger as well.

The fiberglass handled digging shovel might have been "OK" but, I'm not a fiberglass fanboy. It had a bigger step but, also had the impressed "Husky" moniker in the blade.

Some of the transfer shovels looked like they might be an "OK" deal if thats something you needed.

Personally, I think Lowes has a nicer wood handled shovel with a big step that I'd consider buying first.

I almost gave up after searching the garden tool isle, they were all outside by the garden checkout. I got a few nice things for $8.

My stores have all the Husky Garden tools on sale.

But it is more like 30% off at my stores. More like $17 for a $24 item.

If you actually went to the store to buy one of those specific tools in mind, and saw that price drop, it might sway you over to the Husky closeout brand. But the sales prices aren't worth buying a bunch of tools you won't use very often.

And they weren't all that great quality. If you can grab them up for 5 or 6 bucks, then great deal. But if they are more in the 17 - 21 dollar range like my store, then it's a PASS.

My store has switched all the price tags on the hangers to show the new brand, but still has the husky products out. I price matched a Husky sledge hammer and it was not on sale at all.

For $10 it was a good deal on spades and hard rakes. Most things were already sold out by me. Thanks for posting this!

Well I have been to 5 HD's in Oklahoma & Texas and managed to find some of the sale items in all but 1. On the sledge hammers what I have found is none of the Husky brand have been on sale at any of them, but the "Rockforge" brand I have found at 2 of them that were deep discounted (75% or more). I have never heard of the brand and it seems that not all HD's carry the line?

At least it's not like lowes where 3 stores in a 5 mile area have 3 drastically different prices on the same item?

Went by the HD near the office. Picked up a trenching shovel and hoe for around 50% off. They also had the same for tamping tools and fiberglass shovels.

Sledges were there and marked down a whopping $1. Might go back in a few weeks and see if they realized that wasn't going to do much

Went to the Walden Ave location in Cheektowaga, NY. They were stocking and had most of section blocked off. I did see a $40 Husky shingle remover spade shovel for $8.50.

They still have the leftovers hanging around my local HD but at least they're not being replaced with complete garbage. My local had razorback products replacing them. The prices were pretty good too, the long handled round point shovel was less than $25.

I walked through yesterday, didn't see much. There was a sticker for pick axes for $5, but none left. All I saw were ****** HDX shovels and some other brand.

My two local stores still have a fair bit of this stuff left. No sledgehammers though.

I think I got one of the last here in Fayetteville, NC. The new Razorback items don't seem built as well as the Husky I just picked up.

Just as a heads up, yesterday, I stopped in a Home Depot; they only had a few things left, but I got a nice fiberglass flat point shovel, marked $14, rang up for $10! Might be worth getting a price check if there is anything still in stock you want.
