I'm pretty sure that Tractor Supply (they have a catalog) sells Kentool -
made in the USA type spoons. I have a couple of smaller ones that I bought
there, but they sell the semi tractor size ones also. If they don't have
them in a store, they can order them. Prices are ok, but Kentool never
seems to be cheap.
