Not recognised by who? Have you had to pass through an airport x-ray thingy on the way to site - "Does not compute!"
Surely by that logic most archaeological 'equipment' would be banned on H&S grounds: trowels - not designed for scraping (especially something as solid and wrist-knackering as soil) but for applying plaster, mattocks intended for hacking out large areas of soil not neatly hacking out largely areas of soil (erm), paint brushes (if anyone actually uses them) for painting etc.
