[QUOTE="cabwoody, post: 87096, member: 1322"] Hi all, I have been using a Stavr Scoop (Krepisch v.11). Initially I put a fibreglass handle on it but I found that over time the grit wore away at the section inside the sleeve and the handle became loose as the screw holes rubbed and enlarged. I now have a stainless steel handle. It's a bit heavier but not too heavy, and it's rock solid. I just need to put a grip on the grab handle. The scoop cost about $200 delivered; the fibreglass handle was $25; the SS handle,done as a pair for a buddy and I cost $25. I also changed out the supplied 5mm phillips head screw and replaced with 6mm SS hex nut and bolt as that will be easier to remove if crusted up whereas the screw head might burr.
