Chinese Soldier Shovel Multi-Tool
 

Chinese Soldier Shovel Multi-Tool

I'm pretty ignorant about stuff like this.

What's your take?

But wait! There's More!

Make julian fries!

The only thing missing is Billy Mays, some Mighty Putty in the handle and if you call in the next 10 minutes we'll double your order! That's right! You'll get 2 Amazing Shovels for the incredible price of only $19.95 each!

All joking aside, it looks somewhat like my Viet Nam era shovel which is quite handy.

It's a shovel.

Maybe some people haven't seen these before.

Pretty ignorant of how a shovel works?

I want my 8min 46secs back :rolleyes:

Everyone on my Christmas list is getting two of these.

I especially liked how it sets up tents. That will save me so much time that I can use to just sit at camp while it does all the work.

And so it goes...

Underground Combat: Stereophonic Blasting,Tunnel Rats and the Soviet-Afghan War
Foreign Military Studies Office, Fort Leavenworth, KS.

The search group was armed with knifes, entrenching tools, hand grenades, pistols, and assault rifles. { Note: The entrenching tool was a weapon of choice for Soviet soldiers in hand-to-hand combat. Elite forces normally kept a razor-sharp edge on their entrenching tools. }

Why are Chinese soldiers eating Spam and drinking champagne to the tunes from a spaghetti Western?

Pick or Hoe?
 

Pick or Hoe?

But really it's pretty much the same as our last model Wood Handle E-Tool - except ours did have the pick.

The sharp edge? Could put an adge on ours if you wanted to - don't know why - I'd just use my K-BAR or multi tool for anything fancy.

Of course we now have the black piece of crap.

Hey SGM... we keep those black pieces of crap in each vehicle... they work very well against Zombies, and even those too stupid to die...:eek:

Carry a heavy ruck all day then use a short handled e-tool to dig a foxhole for NDP; and people wonder why infantrymen wind up with bad backs.

I would have hated to be the grappling hook tester and it looked like it would have taken forever to open that can of ham. It made a pretty neat shield though.

Worked pretty well for Ola Mize too.

I prefer a loaded gun, and don't care if people see that as somehow unfair.

Wouldn't it also be shovel to face instead of hand to hand? :D

Will this do?

The Chinese have a Gin-su Shovel?!? We've lost. How can we compete against such a well equipped foe? Let's hope the Mexicans don't get any of these. We'll never be able to keep them out of Arizona...

true...
 

Never know when you're sitting in a car with your shovel, minding your own business and someone attacks you with a long stick, right?

The 'hang' function has me a little worried though. Looks pretty advanced...almost like the Chinese figured out gravity. I hope our engineers aren't too far behind on that kind of stuff :D:rolleyes::D

Thats what I was thinking, I'll take my pistol over a shovel anyday.

My stock answer when people used to ask me if I knew karate was, "I practice ka-gun."

Yep - and, ironically, against the same ffolkes who are touting the benefits of this new gin-zu e-tool.
