Special Forces Shovel - Mandlaka - 28 May 2013
After doing some reading and checking on youtube, it looks like the special forces shovel from cold steel may be a very good buy.
Has anyone used one and could you please let us know if it is worth the money I would have to pay for a couple of them?
I would really appreciate your thoughts.

Its heavier than the traditionally issued Russian one's, for camping it might be a bit much but for a car it's ok. You need to have quite a bit of shoulder strength to get it moving but as a mix up of Hatchet and Machete it's ok.

Looks well made. can't really go wrong with the design. Weight can have positive or negative aspects. Depends on what you intend to use it for.
