modern pitch forks maybe, early pitch forks were for throwing hay around (fork means to separate in two directions, the four tine would be these two tines being split once more), and almost all farm tools eventually got remade into tools of war & torture.Guess that where our modern Devil gets his pitch folk from. Plus pitchforks have a flat ridge for the foot
I don't think its an accident the grim reaper uses a scythe to separate mortals from the earth while the lord of the underworld uses a pitchfork to usher these freshly mown souls to their proper place, just as a farmer would when moving freshly cut hay.
