    • misleading description, lies, and made in china, not USA as advertised
After hearing about SOG products, and their advertisements, I figured I would give SOG products a shot. That was a mistake. First, these are made in CHINA, not USA as advertised. and the product quality is no where near what you would expect from their advertisements. The reason I gave them a shot was for 2 reasons, first, a lot of the complaints are years old, so they could have fixed things, and second, it was advertised as being made in the USA, which after I got it, was wrong. At least according to the little, Made in China print on the bottom of the box. So here is my impression so far. First, low quality material. The bolts alone in the joints are metric grade 4.8. Go look at any metric bolt chart and you will find that those are the lowest grade bolts on any of the charts. Basically, they are probably equivalent to those bolts you get in the bins up at your local hardware store for pennies, to nickels each. They are those really cheap ones. The washers in the joints, do not look like they are any better of quality either, so it would not surprise me if the whole shovel was made out of cheaper to mid grade steel, at best. The paint on mine is on there good enough that it does not just come off with your fingernail, like some others claimed, but I can say this, it is not a really durable paint either. The paint on the edge of the rivets on the shovel part, was mostly worn off from rubbing while in the box. As for the hardened steel part. I will say this. I do believe that it was hardened, but, and here is the big but.. There is a big difference in hardened steel, just like there is a huge difference between types of steel. You can have a really good steel that has not been hardened, that can have better qualities, then a really cheap steel that has been hardened. I believe that the steel in these, is a mid grade, at best (being generous here) hardened steel. So basically, just because it is hardened, does not make it a good product. As for the shovel part. As other have stated, you can bend it with your hands, but that is only able to be done if you are bending it to the side. The way that you usually use a shovel is from front to back, not side to side. But that does not change the fact that I can start to bend things with my hands. The one reason that it is as durable in the actual way you use the shovel is not because of its strength in the joints, but by the fact that it has a brace. The shove back has 2 part. There is one part that you can use for digging small thin (about 1" diameter) holes in the ground, and one part that is for shoveling actual holes. When the part for shoveling actual holes is down, the part for making 1" holes goes up, and vise versa. Because of this, the stability of the shovel relies on this other part for bracing it up against the handle, close to where the joint is for the grip part of the handle, for its strength. Without that extra piece there for the bracing, I dont believe that there would be much strength in the shovel. The whole shovel blade part is dull. Usually, a shovel works good when the edge that digs in the ground has an edge, so it can cut into the dirt easier, to dig the holes. The metal of the actual shovel part is probably about 1/8" thick metal, and is rounded on all edges. Meaning, instead of trying to jam a point into the ground, you are trying to jam an 1/8", or probably about 3mm wide, barely rounded edge into the ground. This edge should have been at least somewhat beveled down to make the edge more of a point. The saw part of the shovel is a joke too. As others have stated, it is not sharp at all. My opinion, it is as sharp as the butter knives in my kitchen drawer, at best (I think my butter knives are actually sharper). Even with the deep teeth, they are so dull that i let the weight of the whole shovel on to the teeth part, pulling backwards, across the cardboard that it came in, and it barely left a dent. I did the same thing, but going in the correct direct, against my arm, and it never even left any kind of mark on my skin. Seriously, if it can not even scratch skin, it is not ripping anything. Since this thing does come apart so easily, if you want to make it better, I would suggest you take the 2 bolts out of the joints, go up to the hardware store, and buy new, better, and higher grade nuts and bolts and washers. The washer I am talking about is the big round one that is by the twist to lock part. and sharpen the teeth on the blade, along with the edge of the shovel too. While this shovel does have its uses, from what they advertised, I expected a lot more. I understand that this is cheap, and like they say, you get what you pay for. and I understand that, but the fact is, if you have an advertisement that says military grade stuff, that is what you should give them. I have an old military grade shovel that folds up, and that one I can see quality in. There is absolutely nothing military grade in this, but more of a cheap hikers companion that want to go camping overnight. That is about all this is. So while it does have its uses, make sure you understand it many limitations and dont expect to put it through much stress while using it, and you should be fine. Would I recommend it to anyone. No. and truthfully, the only reason that it got 2 stars instead of one is because it does have its uses, and it was cheap. I got it from a amazon warehouse deal for cheap, and to be honest, If I paid even full price on this for amazon prime members, it would be returned, because in my opinion, it is barely worth that. ======================================= Update: I wrote about the product quality on their facebook wall, and this was their response.. "the Entrenching Tool is built to be a lightweight, portable shovel. Like with any other product, there are compromises. Shovels do not have knife-sharp edges for many reasons. The fasteners used are adequate for its purpose and use." While I do agree that at times, there has to be compromises, simply using better quality metal has nothing to do with weight, but does with durability. and while I do agree having a "razor sharp" edge is not a good thing in a shovel like this, having a beveled edge makes it much easier and more effective to use. And no, I never stated to them about having a "razor sharp edge". My comment stated that teeth that are supposed to be for cutting were pointless if you can not even scratch your skin with then, so they need some kind of edge to do what they stated it was for. An axe does not have a razor sharp edge, but is good enough for cutting wood. That was my point to them. and just look down the reviews and you will see many complaints that their fasteners, which includes the supporting washer, are not "adequate" as they stated. More them one person has stated that the washer is made of soft metal and bends when putting any kind of pressure on it, which makes the possibility of the shovel being dangerous to use. I would not call that adequate, but I guess if all you used it for was digging in sand, then it would be adequate. I will just say this... Use your own opinion here. I would like to point one final thing out. While i do understand that these are cheap, I also feel that if in your advertisement, you say, "our full line of tools is field proven by US special forces", (that part is in the video attached to the pictures) you should at least somewhat live up to what you advertise. I don't expect top of the line for the price, but I also don't expect with that kind of advertisement, that you would use just about the lowest quality of bolts and washers that you can find either. If you advertise having a saw, that saw should have some use, other then ripping paper. and if it does not live up to your advertisements, have something to say that. there is nothing to say that this is not a high quality product, or even decent quality. I just find it unacceptable that after all of their claims, on this product, they don't live up to more then they do. ... show more

    • Threaded nut feels cheap and nearly froze up with beach sand.
The tighte ing nut that hold the shovel in place feels cheap. Some sand got it in it and it nearly froze up. Not the same as the old army trench shovels.

    • Not big as an Army E-tool
Smaller than an Army E-Tool, my fault for not reading the title well, however the size "grew" on me as it's easier to backpack and is pretty well built.

    • A little smaller, but that's ok
I like this shovel; yes it's a little smaller than the standard tri fold shovel, but very good quality and perfect size for throwing in the rear bag of the quad.
