Compact foldable entrenching tool engineered as a rescue instrument for rapid snow removal, such as post-avalanche situations, suitable not only for mountain rescue operations but also as part of the gear for all medical aid units working under challenging conditions.
During wintertime, the tool is highly practical for campsite setup or building ski and snowboard jumps. Thanks to its foldable construction, it occupies minimal space, making it essential equipment for every vehicle (ideal for escaping a snowdrift) and a must-have in any backpack on a mountain expedition (can be carried inside a backpack or securely attached to it).
The shovel is constructed from lightweight, flexible polycarbonate that provides excellent frost resistance. A broad working area combined with a contoured design ensures efficient operation and rapid removal of packed snow. For enhanced performance on frozen surfaces and concrete, the front edge features aluminum reinforcement for superior penetration. The joint between the shaft and the blade is built from durable ABS plastic to withstand demanding use.
An ergonomic handle, crafted from nylon, features a lower section covered in an anti-slip texture, enabling secure handling even when wearing thick gloves.
The entire design is foldable—a robust mechanism enables swift deployment of the shovel within seconds. A locking ring guarantees ease of use during operation.
