The entrenching tool does its job well. The plus is the case, which can be safely placed in a backpack. The downside is that the construction loosens over time and needs to be tightened.
A practical folding shovel crafted from robust stainless steel, inspired by the model utilized by the US Army. The secondary head features a matte anti-corrosion coating.
The side edge of the head is fitted with a single-row saw to facilitate cutting roots or thin branches. A screw-on lock at the shovel's base allows the spade to be positioned either straight or at a 90-degree angle to the handle, enabling a comfortable digging angle adjustment.
Equipped with a steel handle featuring a reliable spring lock. The triangular-shaped handle design allows the tool to be hung conveniently.
Its foldable 3-piece structure makes the shovel easy to transport.
Included is a nylon pouch with a Velcro fastener, which can be attached to a belt or other gear.

I have a farm, I bought the entrenching tool to keep in the tractor – it could come in handy when working in the field, and it hardly takes up any space. After a week, it was already used to dig a hole to remove a stone. For simple tasks, it will be perfect. It's light and very compact.
-
I bought it a long time ago, used occasionally but works flawlessly. I haven’t tested the saw or used it as a pickaxe; I've always used it as a shovel. Plus for the small size when folded and the case.
-
I wanted to dig up a tree seedling today and the tool broke (see photo). It hadn't been used intensively before. Better to add a bit more and buy a small shovel from a garden shop for 50 PLN.
-
Well made, but too small for me – for those looking for a miniature entrenching tool, it will be suitable. For me, it's too much of a compromise between weight, size, and functionality.
-
The entrenching tool is very compact, and the extra case is a big plus. I recommend buying it.
-
Excellent, sturdy, and compact entrenching tool. I definitely recommend it!
-
Great, I use it for gardening, especially for pulling weeds. Really good entrenching tool, which I carry on my belt.
-
Fits well in the hand, functional – highly recommend!
-
Very good shovel in this price range. Bought for trips – it's small, light, easily fits in a pocket or pouch, much more practical than large models.
-
Field test passed positively. The biggest advantage is the ability to attach the cover to a backpack and its really small size. It's not meant for digging large areas, but for bushcraft – it's great.
-
Works flawlessly, suitable for many uses.
-
The entrenching tool feels solid, well made, and inexpensive. Thanks to its compact size, it fits in virtually any bag. I bought it thinking of emergency situations in winter as trunk equipment – I think it will come in handy for other purposes too.
-
Small, convenient. If someone is looking for something really small when folded – I recommend it.
-
Very suitable for simple tasks – I can recommend it.
