Review on πŸ•οΈ Yeacool Foldable Camping Shovel with Pickaxe - High Carbon Steel Entrenching Tool for Digging, Backpacking, Hiking, Gardening, Emergency, Outdoors by Scott Tompkins

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Powerful multifunctional shovel.

If I had read some of the reviews before ordering this shovel I probably would not have ordered it. When I saw the advert saying the shovel was made in China I almost ordered it but I'm so glad I did! I can only name two downsides, but they are far outweighed by this shovel's power, its additional hidden tools, its functionality, and its price. I give 5/5 stars and can only recommend it. The spade head is approximately 4 1/4" by 5" and was accurately described in the listing, although I kinda thought it would be larger. Another thing I didn't like is the "compass"; Mine didn't have a needle so it's not functional, but I still haven't been able to rely on it. In general, the shovel and handle are made of durable metal. So unless you hit it on a boulder, I think it will do its job perfectly. It fits very well in a sturdy scoop-shaped pouch that can be worn on a belt. I was very happy to see how strong and durable this little shovel is. I especially liked the fact that you can bend both the shovel head and the pickaxe. Hidden inside the handle are a whistle, a small saw, and a small cutting blade. The pack includes easy-to-follow building instructions in the form of diagrams showing where additional survival features are hidden.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Minor issues
