Received advice from Bucket Solutions:
"Please rotate the forks so they’re facing/pointing down, towards the ground with the spade about 2 inches from the ground. Spray some penetrating oil (WD 40), on either side of the forks and let it work its way into the spade. Then use a sledgehammer hitting on the back rear edge of the spade. You may want to put a 2x4 on the back edge of the spade and hit it."
