chinese military shovel wow

  • Come along to the amazing Summer Moot (21st July - 2nd August), a festival of bushcrafting and camping in a beautiful woodland PLEASE CLICK HERE for more information.
I bet it has made in Sweden on the side of it, that would be so funny.

It looks pretty cool but for £80 it better take a hiding for a long time. I can see the bit that allows the spade head to bend being the weak point. Of course if I had a spare £80 I would buy one.
 
Its magnificent.

comes in flourescent colours and has a bottle opener.

Im still attached to my delightfully foldy thingy though
 
I don't know.... looks a bit to much like propaganda to me.
When finished digging your foxhole I seriously doubt you will be able to cut your spuds or saw through a copper pipe, which just happens to lie in the woods, that easy.
Using an entrenchingtool as a axe or hammer for tentpeggs or even nails? Nothing new either....

I must admit that things like the nailpuller and bottleopener look fancy, but how long will these "smalltoolgimmicks" last when you start hacking and shoveling away in the ground?

The thing is; how come all of a sudden, something Chinese, cheap & mass produced , suddenly got so expensive??:confused:

After all; we are all fully aware of the fact,that China does indeed mass produce everything they use, as well as most of our goods too but with tiny manufacturing costs. (still:confused:)

I wouldn't waste more than £15 on that myself:rolleyes:
