super shovel

If you really want a super shovel...check these guys out. Some really sweet shovels that'll survive a nuclear blast. They even make a folding entrenching tool that you can buy replacement parts for when it kicks the bucket (they always do--it's just a matter of when) I want their Hercules model really bad. :D
 
Pretty cool but I'll stick w/ my cold steel shovels that I've had for 15+ years.

Very nice but I think I will stick with my USMC issue E-Tool.

Seriously--if you ever decide to upgrade check out Predator Tools. USA made and the highest performance shovels I've yet to find. Super cool stuff.

I want this one:

LOOOOOOOOL that video is fantastic. The music! The special effects! The food prep. The knockoff shovel that doesn't do anything different than the standard GI folding shovel we've been buying at swap meets for decades! Just fantastic.

And Myal, it's real easy to drum up energy if you know that you'll be packed off to the labor camps if your performance isn't up to par :)
 
I like the CS shovels, I use them every day landscaping. I like the centered socket, it gives you options, and keeps it balanced. Throws good (killed rabbits with them), chops good in it's POU.

I haven't tried these fancy chinese ones though...

i'm digging that one. the real question is when will they be back in stock lol
 
He's hoping to get them back up sometime next week, but he's been backlogged with trying to keep up on orders for his new Raven model.

I'll probably be getting one of the Big Red models soon--the folks that board my horses are moving to a new house and my lady and I will be renting the property instead. There's a lot of work to be done to pretty the place up, and I'm going to need a DAMN good shovel to do it. ("See honey? I NEED this $90 shovel!" :D)
 
I love this place!!,where else can you talk about shovels-just got me the CS and the swiss army ww2 shovel w/sheath,both excellent

One of my buddies said the same thing! :D They're designed primarily with metal detector/relic hunter folks in mind--and if there's one class of people known for being rough on shovels, it's them!
 
Imagine 1,000,000,000 Chinese with one each coming to America!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
lol :) scary thought

I have a no brand shovel with a screw in handle that does the job for me metal detecting .
For some reason tho , where other guys turn up nuggets , I get spent projectiles .. it only takes a finding a couple handfuls of them to make a man jittery about more being sent that way ...
 
Looks like a crazy shovel.

You know what else is crazy? They're $150 here:eek:

I keep bringing one of those green folding military ones with me. Had it for a year and haven't used it yet. It's there if I eventually need it.
 
I think the spaghetti western theme music fit well with the Chinese shovel.
