It's not a folding shovel, but I like the idea of the Cold Steel Special Forces Shovel. It has a short hardwood handle, and you can sharpen an edge to act like a hatchet. They're also pretty inexpensive. The design is very simple, so not much can go wrong with it.I don't like shovels and entrenching tools and such that have a lot of moving parts. They look like points of failure waiting to happen.
I agree. I also have the Cold Steel shovel and I like it because I have more confidence in its strength, however I was really impressed last year with the amount of abuse both the folding shovels put up with last year.

Good to know. I think maybe part of my fear is that the ones I've had have been cheapos. I guess well made ones are a different beast.
