Backcountry 3 - Entrenching Tool

German military extra heavy-duty entrenching tool, used to dig foxholes, combines a shovel, hoe and pick into one tool. Made of heavy gauge steel it will take a beating (unlike the fragile Tri-fold shovels and most commercial shovels). The hard-wood handle has been buffed for easy handling and weather resistance. Now you can use it to build a campfire ring, dig a latrine or work in the garden. Its a compact, fold-down shovel that is easy to pack or put behind the truck seat and take everywhere. Locks in 4 positions, straight for general digging, 90 degrees for use as a hoe or put the pick straight or at 90 degrees also. You can also pull out the pick spide and the shovel blade both at 90 degree angles to make a make-shift stool. Not as comforable as a real stool, but better than squatting on your heals. Measures: 17 1/2 inches closed or pick 90 degree angled, 25 inches shovel open, pick 4 inch. Weight: 3 1/2 lbs. Condition: Very Good   Out Of Stock In-Stock Notification

Price: $19.88
