Nice small shovel
theitperson•May 19, 2017
Nice small shovel. Very solid built, great quality of materials and workmanship. One note though: even though it is stainless steel, it is that stainless steel that can be hardened, not the soft one. And this sort of stainless steel can rust a bit, not as badly as regular steel does. Bottom line: keep it dry, just don't stick it into sheath while it is still wet. I didn't follow this precaution, and got a couple of rust spots. I would definitely recommend it, and will get the same as replacement if I loose mine.
Small and Sturdy

Small, but that just makes it easier to store.
Bought this as an emergency shovel for my Jeep. With the size, it's more of an emergency spade.
It is solid and seems well made, and so does the case. With the size I can easily get under the Jeep to dig around a tire, and can store it almost anywhere. There are two loops on the back to make storage easier. I am very pleased with this purchase.

Well made strong shovel
Brian C•December 4, 2015
Well made, really strong and durable. Only issue is that the handle is a little short for any type of extended digging. If you are thinking that you can dig a fighting (fox) hole with this, better schedule a session with a chiropractor, your back will not appreciate it. But for light digging such as a Dakota fire hole, fire pits, chopping and even throwing, it is great. The sheath is well made but attachment to any external pack etc. would be an issue. It has two belt loops, where molle straps would have been a better use.
Super tough, well made utility shovel!

Much tougher than anticipated! This is my first United Cutlery item, and it certainly won't be my last. Backpacked with this hanging off my pack for three weeks, with it's great little blade guard. This thing lasts - it is durable, and not the cheap stuff you get elsewhere. If I had not traded this to a local guide, I am sure I would have had it for years.
