These guys have too time at their hands. They made a 8 minute video on the "Multifunction folding spade" and what's with the WW2 music?

Is it for real?

Is it for real?

Looks like a very nice advertisement.

Even the USSR had their own shovel, from which PRC copied and made theirs (well all shovels look the same, so I take that back). Here is a picture:



See more here: Russian Special Forces - Spetsnaz GRU - Entrenching Shovel in Close Combat - Basic Technique.

Yet, in real war, the traditional digging instruments are more useful than a shovel with such a short lever action. Watch these Russian soldiers setup a mortar position (watch from @3:20):

WW2 music? It's a sound track from a Hollywood western.
