BUND Original Tri-fold, NSN 5120-12-173-5474

This genuine military issue tri-fold shovel was robustly designed for and issued to the Bundeswehr (BUND) translated as the German Armed Forces, built to exact NATO specifications. Made from steel entirely, giving them a solid, durable construction that will last for years to come.

Known as a tri-fold shovel, it can be folded into three sections which can be freely positioned for different applications, or folded into its own German Electron Camouflage Nylon/Canvas Case, It can be locked straight out at 180 degrees to be used as a shovel or locked at 90 degrees and used as a pick. To lock the blade, simply unfold the shovel to the desired angle and twist the rotating cylinder located on the handle. This will lock both the blade and the handle in place. Additionally, equipped with 2 serrated edges for sawing-like motions and slicing.

Most of the shovels have the “BUND” on the handle and NSN number on the blade (NATO NSN number has a 12 as the country code which also indicates Germany). Weighing in at an extremely manageable 2.5 pounds excluding case. At a full extension, the shovel measures approximately 23 inches long and 6 inches wide.
