Manufacturer's suggested price
A lightweight and functional shovel in olive green, designed for versatile use in the field. Its solid, classic design combines durability with ease of use, making it a reliable tool for traveling, camping, or gardening. Its low weight and compact dimensions make it easy to fit in a backpack or bag, while maintaining high functionality.
Blade made of durable 1050 carbon steel
The 2 mm thick blade is made of 1050 carbon steel, which, after proper hardening, achieves a hardness of 42–46 HRC. These parameters guarantee high resistance to deformation and mechanical damage. The olive-colored protective coating protects the surface from corrosion, protecting the metal in difficult terrain conditions. The sharp edges make it easier to stick into the ground, dig through hard soil, or cut turf, which increases the practicality of the shovel during every expedition.
Beech wood handle – durability and comfort
The handle is made of high-quality beech wood, known for its load-bearing capacity and resistance to cracking. Its ergonomically contoured shape ensures a secure, stable grip and reduces hand fatigue during prolonged use. The smoothly sanded surface of the wood increases comfort of use and protects against abrasions, making the tool comfortable in all terrain conditions.
