    Those Fiskar axe's are awesome, although mine flew off my truck on the freeway once and got damaged a little bit. Still usable though.

    side note: don't trust Quickfists' stupid plastic washer that they give you to put with the screw...they snap and then the quickfist slides over the screw/bolt and off comes your gear. Replaced the plastic one with a metal one and that hasn't happened again.

    Good question as I alternate from a tonneau cover and a shell topper.

    Based on this video they are the exact same shovel. Except one doesn't have all the gimmicks thrown into its advertising. Paint and an easy to copy release pin cause the Krazy beaver to be twice as much..... Err 1.6 times as much. Sorry. Your comparison to Nike is more like comparing a standard pair of nikes to a pair of Nike x off-white colabs. One pair I can feel comfortable running in while another pair has a bunch of goofy shit slapped to it to raise the price. At the foundation they are the same damn shoe. Aye those designer nikes will go good with my outfit though maybe I can custom paint a Krazy beaver to match the outfit as well.

    All the things!
    Indeed, they seem to be identical. I guess my best argument is that for $30, I didn't have to waste my time digging through reviews and comparisons to figure that out.

    Maybe the Nike isn't a good comparison... how about Rigid light bars vs your typical no-name knockoff, ie Caliraised?

    I can stand behind that argument. Time is money. I learned they are one in the same too.

    Idk about that one either. Maybe more like Ray Ban vs Luxottica.

    A shovel is a shovel. Leave the micro shovels and e-tools at the surplus stores, they suck wang unless you're planting flowers or backpacking or digging a shit hole in the woods. You bought a truck capable of carrying a full size shovel in the bed.

    Personally, I have a half size wood handle on the header rail. Paid $12 at a hardware store.

    But what about the fear of splinters going into the oily lotioned hands?
