A two-handled snow shovel is disclosed. The shovel includes a blade for carrying the snow, a lower shaft that extends from the upper edge of the blade angling forward substantially forty five degrees and upward and then connecting with an upper shaft forming another substantially forty five degree angle so that the upper shaft is substantially perpendicular to the ground, with a handle on the upper side of the upper shaft just behind the joining point, and ending in a second handle at the proximal end of the upper shaft.
