Romanian Army Folding Shovel

Features

1. Genuine Romanian Army Surplus — Authentic military-issue entrenching tool drawn from former Romanian People's Army stocks, not a commercial reproduction.
2. High-Carbon Steel Spade Head — Heat-treated steel blade stands up to hard soil, roots, and repeated digging without bending or chipping.
3. Solid Hardwood Handle — Traditional turned wood shaft absorbs shock, resists splintering, and gives you a comfortable grip in cold weather where metal handles fail.
4. Folding Lock-Ring Design — Threaded steel collar locks the blade in the open digging position or pivoted 90° for use as a hoe or pick.
5. Compact Folded Length — Folds down to roughly 18 inches (46 cm) for easy stowage in a pack, vehicle kit, or bug-out bag.
6. Full-Size Working Reach — Extends to approximately 25–26 inches (64–66 cm) open, giving you real leverage instead of the cramped feel of a tri-fold E-tool.
7. Multi-Function Field Tool — Doubles as a shovel, hoe, pick, and chopper for trenching, clearing brush, fire pits, and vehicle recovery work.
8. Warsaw Pact Provenance — Cold War-era design pattern issued throughout the Eastern Bloc, prized by collectors and bushcrafters alike.
9. Belt- or Pack-Ready — Slim folded profile rides well lashed to MOLLE webbing, ALICE gear, or a rucksack frame.
