The Lesche Sampson shovel is manufactured in the USA by W.W. Manufacturing, the company founded by Walter Lesche in the 1950s. Each shovel is hand-crafted using aircraft-quality steel tubing and heat-treated for superior strength. The company is located at its original site where Walt Lesche moved the business in 1964, and it remains the sole manufacturer of Lesche-branded digging tools. American manufacturing allows tighter quality control over the welding, heat-treating, and edge-sharpening processes that make the Sampson durable enough for a five-year warranty.
