@toxicxbullet1- Well most of them do not come sharpened, the teeth are there, but usually you have to add the final edge to it. Even with that said, everything has it's limits, but it is better than "no" saw at all. Sorry you couldn't make it work out for you. It worked for me as you can see in the vid, but I also was only using it on limbs about the size of the shovels handle too.

Good tip... I can tell that the old man has been around the woods a time or two. But here is an extra tip,,,, if you are afloat, or on a boat, and the current catches you, don't despair, you can get there, the "E-Tool", will paddle you through.

Really enjoyed the video. thanks so much. i've got mine in a cover, but the using it for an emergency stove was cool. I never thought of that, that is awesome. thanks for the ideas.

@jloneill17 ..........We are only limited by our imagination, determination, and situation. Thanks for watching.

good ideas man

Yeah man, that's a review! You actually used the shovel instead of just talking. This is exactly why tv is dead. People are getting off the couch and rocking out while people from all over the world can say hi or ask a question. Hey, I hope you ate that tree after you killed it.

cool video. but i should point out trifolding shovels are crap. you dig or chop with any of them hard enough they break or bend. and east german or chinese folding military shovel will not. personally i prefer the cold steel / russian shovel. its almost indestructable. no folding mechanisms to break, fairly light, and can be used as an axe much better and hold an edge instead of a cheapo chinese "military trifolding shovel"

hey if i give you the shovel will you give me that knife then i could stab you and have the shovel and the knife

[gabbaro]

Nice advice, thank you!

The shovel is a piece of crap in reality, there is no serrated edge just what LOOKS like one, the edges are not sharp AT ALL its got this shit plastic coating to boot, the thing bends out of shape when you hit the slightest bit of hard dirt. This is seriously not a good buy, if you want a good backpacker shovel that you can grind real well get a treeplanting one, you can order them from Canada. Don't BS about the stool, that bends the whole thing after first sit. This is crap. Get a crovel,
