Camping.
Firstly, the build quality of this shovel is outstanding. It is made from high-quality materials that are designed to withstand heavy-duty use. The blade is made from durable carbon steel, which allows it to easily dig through various types of soil and debris. The handle is made from reinforced steel, providing a sturdy and comfortable grip.
The folding design of this shovel is a major advantage. It easily collapses into a compact size, making it convenient to carry and store. Whether I'm hiking, camping, or simply keeping it in my car for emergencies, the compact size allows me to bring it along without taking up too much space.
The versatility of this shovel is impressive. It features a serrated edge on one side of the blade, which comes in handy for cutting through roots or branches. The shovel can also be adjusted to different angles, allowing me to use it as a pickaxe or hoe when needed. This versatility makes it a valuable tool for a wide range of outdoor activities.
I also appreciate the included carrying case. It not only protects the shovel when not in use but also makes it easy to transport. The case has a belt loop and shoulder strap, giving me multiple options for carrying it comfortably.
Overall, the SOG Entrenching Tool- 18.25 Inch Folding Survival Shovel is a top-notch tool that I highly recommend. Its durability, compactness, and versatility make it a must-have for any outdoor enthusiast or emergency preparedness kit. Whether I'm digging a fire pit, clearing a trail, or preparing for unexpected situations, this shovel has proven to be reliable and efficient.
It'll get you a hole when you need a hole or it'll help dig you out of a bad situation. Perfect for a multitude of uses
ON THE OTHER HAND THE SOG IS THE BOMB! Its super duper light, and it folds up and fits into a pouch Thats maybe 6-8"x 4" WOW!! This tool also is really solid when fully deployed and locked. Like not even a rattle from the spade moving tight! With the added serrated cutting surface on the side of the spade & the pick, this is truly a mufti tool that can be super handy! Shovel, Saw, Pick, Hoe, Wepon (Either puncture, or slashing) . pry bar, climbing pick.... So on and so on.. You get the point. THE PRICE IS RIGHT, ITS LITE, STURDY, AND TACTICAL BLACK!! JUST BUY IT ALREADY!!!
Once it's unfolded completely, hold the handle towards your body and the shovel pointing away from you. Then grab the metal tube in the center (labeled SOG) in one hand, while turning the plastic knurled collar ring in the clockwise direction. You are essentially UNscrewing the ring from the central body of the tool, making it longer, and eventually expanding it enough to lock all three sections into place. When it comes from the factory, the ring is tightened down onto the body of the shaft enough to fool you into thinking it doesn't spin independently, causing you to helplessly twist the whole spring-loaded assembly without anything happening.
Once the tool is properly locked down, it seems to be a well-engineered and sturdy device, given its price point and intended use. You're not going to dig a post hole for your mailbox with it, but it's fine for the average camper's needs or for your bug-out bag.
