Happy holidaze.

I have NO connection to this product.

 

It's probably mediocre at best at everything it does. I can probably get all the tools it's supposed to replace for cheaper than that hunk of junk

 

Yeah cool in theory but your probably better off peicing all of those tools together one by one from high quality manufacturers that specialize in each item. It’s cool that it packs all of these things into a small space but aside from a shovel all of those items are pretty small anyways and could be stored tucked away easily anywhere in your vehicle. Most hand tools are simple, durable and haven’t changed in many years. There’s a reason for that. Also I wouldn’t trust a shovel with a hinge in the neck and I can’t think of many scenarios I’d need a hoe for. Plus things like the window breaker you want within arms reach not packed away tucked under your back seat. It appeals to the gear nerd in all of us but there’s probably better options.

 

^ agree on all and the hinged shovel is lookin small. Just figured I'd share and YES wanted opinions on the product.

 

Why do one thing well when you can do 36 things sub-par?

It's a gimmick.

 

Was $400 now $100. Must be selling like crazy

 

Looks like it was/is patterned after the old (maybe they still have them) G.I. folding shovels the military had/have.

I got a similar one on Amazon for $35 it works great I use it for digging poop holes mostly

 

That's kind of steep for a folding shovel...BTW I have a US surplus folding shovel in the truck with me at all times.

 

Honeslty, it might be a good product for a weekend warrior.

 

The world has learned that folding shovels are the devil

 

I doubt it would work well as an axe or as a hammer. A regular axe can be used as a hammer, hell I can use my cell phone as a hammer if I wanted to. It doesn't have a striking surface nor does it look heavy enough to be an axe.
