Description

Despite having seen previous issuance and use, each U.S. M1943 entrenching tool remains in what can best be described as good condition, though condition will vary from tool to tool. As such, prospective buyers should expect to find signs of wear and usage, including, but not limited to: worn edges, worn finishes and dinged handles. When ordering, please remember that each shovel is a vintage World War II tool that is nearly 70 years old.

Features:
  • Authentic USGI M1943 Shovel
  • Folding Shovel Design
  • War Time Production - All Original Parts
  • Conditions and Markings Vary

Good, solid shovel
Review by Oscar
Excellent entrenching tool, just what I wanted. It appears totally authentic, but I can't find a manufacturer's name on it anywhere, nor a part number That's unusual for GI items..

Very Nice Shovel
Review by Dominic
I got mine a while ago, but it was worth it considering I had bought one from another seller also, but for $10 more. And i was happier with the condition of the shovel that came from Keep Shooting
Overall Rating
Excellent for gardening/bug out bags
Review by Jacob
I bought one of these about 15 years ago, works great. Very tough despite age. I would highly recommend this over the cheap tri-fold E-tools now in use.
Overall Rating
Very useful piece of equipment
Review by Perry
I used mine at a Halloween event where I had to do plenty of digging and have utilized it alongside the later tri-fold version. While this doesn't fold into three, it feels more sturdy and solid. I've put it through plenty of abuse that resulted in dents, scratches, and rust, but the thing has not failed me. I recommend this shovel to collectors, of course, but also to anyone who's in need of a good piece of portable digging equipment.
