Depends on what you mean by authentic. Getting one made by an actual monk or someone who made/makes them for monks? Probably very very difficult. Getting one that's made out of suitable steel, in the correct dimensions, durable and ready for use? Probably a lot less. I can't think of anyone off the top of my head who makes them, but there's a lot of guys who make blades who take orders on the internet. There's definitely some who can put one of these together.
We personally buy our weapons from a martial arts weapons store in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. We also have quite a few training weapons that were made by a weapon smith in the Shaolin Village (when it still existed) in Hedan, China.
Lots of stores sell crappy martial arts materials and weapons. Let me have a look if I can find any good online stores for you that ship from the United States and I'll get back to you!
I'm very much obliged to the help you offer me. I've been searching for a while now for the authentic stuff, online and through stores that sell hand-to-hand combat weaponry, without any direct answers on where to get the good, truly battle ready kind.
It doesn't have to be "authentic".If you make it functional it will do just fine in a zombie outbreak.

I love it, this is a true Monk's spade form. I just learned one and it's wonderful. A truely unique and magnificent weapon!

A nice form and a nice weapon. Does that spade work well in the garden, though? Or can you do it with a generic western gardening shovel?

Where do you get a Shaolin Spade? Where do you purchase one? I study the Shaolin Arts, and I lack the major monk material.
