Yes indeed! I hadn't even thought of those.
As a matter of fact, I actively try NOT to think about them, because they terrify me.
They are the devil's work, and increase the destructive power of shovels several-fold! They allow many holes to be dug in rapid succession without having to release the shovel or even change your grip on it , are virtually indestructible, and increase the accuracy of the shovel to a pin-point! They are the bump-stocks of the shovel world!
They convert a muzzle loading shovel into a modern, state-of-the art assault shovel merely by adding one to a shovel.
No civilian needs a composite handle on their shovel. Those should be reserved ONLY for those trustworthy stalwarts in our government who would never abuse such awesome power.
We need to get those shovels of mass-digging off of our streets pronto! It's for the children!
