Description
This is an Entrenching Tool, E Tool, that is used throughout the US Military. The foldable shovel is used for digging fighting positions to filling sandbags. When folded the shovel fits into E Tool pouches for easy carry. While the shovel is best for digging it can be used for chopping and cutting wood when needed and will take a decently sharp edge when the effort is put into getting one on there. Overall these are handy tools for general outdoor use, whether it’s in the field or just in the back of the truck when out in the mountains.

It slices, it dices, It will dig a hole. You may dread digging with this, until you try the civilian equivalent. The civilian models have plastic parts and the blade of the shovel is thinner. It weights less and isn’t nearly as durable.
This item was purchased used, and had been used at some point. It was well cleaned and had been repainted at some point to prevent rust buildup.
If your E-Tool ain’t digging like it used to, look up shovel sharpening videos, it makes a world of difference.
