- CS-92SFS: Special Forces Spetsnaz Shovel/ 19.68" / 2Mm Thick Blade

I've wanted one of these for decades, and when I saw that it now comes with a nice sheath, I had to get one. It comes fairly sharp, but remember that if it had a razor edge the edge would chip when using using it for its primary purpose-digging. To me, the chopping capability is for emergency use. If you are going camping, bring a proper chopping tool like a hatchet or machete/kukri etc. If you are planting a garden at your home, get a real shovel. This is an entrenching tool, bring the right tool for the job. I got it for the truck in case I get stuck, and for this kind of use it's great. I have no need of something that folds up like an E-tool for this purpose so I like the solid construction; no rivets, joints, or threaded sleeves to fail or loosen. I can clear snow or dirt, and use the edge to chop branches to place under the tires for traction. I have many Cold Steel products since the early 90's (when they were a super expensive knife brand using Seki steel from Japan) and they are very good even though a lot of their products are just stamped steel now. The handle on this is the same as on their "Bad Axe" and is very strong. And yes, it could make a pretty effective weapon in a pinch. Would recommend.

Solid. Functional. Well-designed and executed. Great Piece of Gear.

Best short shovel I have ever owned. I have several now. I made several lengths of handle for them. I have even purchased these for several other people. This is a pack shovel so very short as it comes from the factory. It has survived some very vigorous use. I have also found about a million uses around the.hiuse for it. They seem to last about forever. Oh it also can be used to dig holes or whatever....great for throwing.

Awsome shovel! Heavy duty tool for digging, comes with a sharpen edge. Made well for me and despite it being a bit heavy I wouldn’t use it for log splitting because it’s not meant for that type of application.

Simply amazing tool. shovels great and replaces hachet if needed. Good design and steel is solid.

Digs alright

Exactly what it's supposed to be, a tough, compact shovel/hatchet. Sheath fits correctly. Worth the cost, great for emergency shovel in cars or trucks.

Wtf! Wtf! OK. Buy. Buy Buy. I see why it worth the price! Super durable! Sharp edges for roots etc or use as an axe. Eats up some ground man! Wanna see what it takes to destroy this so imma hafta get another one
