Good quality not your bendy cr4p that snap just when you don't want them to!
I feel that buying a premium fork/spade will pay for itself in time.
Recommendations please
Can't go far wrong with bulldog into opinion
Spear and jackson never bend, bought more than 10 of them (for trail building) don't bend, I've tried.
Car boot or junk shop or grandads shed. Any surviving old tools tend to be good quality and built to last and way cheeper than new . Still using my grandads rake axe mallet lump hammer chisels. Dads hammer scythe, pick axe etc.
Spear and Jackson are nice.
Spear & Jackson stainless range. Always cut through the crap and clean up nicely afterwards.

You call your spade James O'Brien ?

Never call a spade a spade, me. 😉
if you own a modern build house I would suggest one with a blade depth of less than 2", as that way when you dig the garden over you will avoid hitting all the crap such as slates, breeze block, industrial plastic bags, general rubble and metal pallet straps that the builder will have very considerately grassed over.
I can highly recommended these for spades, forks and associated tools - http://www.sneeboer.com/t/toolfinder
And Jake at Niwaki does a fantastic range of Japanese garden tools. I can highly recommend the secateurs. Buy beware they are incredibly sharp! - http://www.niwaki.com
£99 for secateurs Jesus wept.
If you're tall or have a bad back Bulldog are brilliant. Even if you're not, I'd still give them a try. Nicely made and in the UK
