You need a metal strip to be able to scrap a bit and keep an even edge. What really cheeses me off is that the blades are riveted on to the shovel, so when the metal inevitably wears down too far, you can't just replace the worn edge by popping on a new one like a skate blade, you have to replace the entire god damn shovel. Pretty sure Big Shovel has a hand in that.
