A shovel for snow, dirt or other product comprises a main shovel handle having a main hand grip and a main pole which is attached to a blade; and an auxiliary handle having an auxiliary hand grip and an auxiliary pole. According to one aspect, the auxiliary pole has a threaded end which is received in a threaded bore in the main pole. The auxiliary pole can be easily attached and detached from the main pole. Adhesive can also be used. According to further aspects, a separate connecting device connects the auxiliary pole to the main pole. In one further aspect, the connecting device has a first branch threadably attached to the main pole, a second branch threadably attached to the auxiliary pole, and a third branch threadably attached to the blade. The connecting device could also be formed as a cuff or sleeve and entirely surround the main pole and be attached thereto such as with a screw, or could be formed in a semicircular cuff and be attached to the main pole such as with bands or clamps. In any case the auxiliary pole can be easily connected to the main pole.
